Re:“Invalid Username or Password”: a useless security measure by d8c6c050cb0a4d7 on Wednesday November 23, 2022 @09:24AM (#33719455)
This is useful when you have multiple methods to authenticate.

Maybe this user should be redirected to an oauth2 identity provider or maybe they should enter a password.

Good implementations of this will have a hidden password field for password managers to fill along with the username. You'll still need to press enter twice though.
