There's no purpose. It's 100% security theatre.
"Security theatre" is what I've named the contact in my work phone for the call center I have to call every time I accidentally use the "one time password" more than once (because god forbid they implement proper SSO, meaning I have to do a shotgun login run every morning). When I call them all I tell them is my name and that my account is locked.They click a button and we're back. Complete waste of time on everyone's part.
Nothing like TSA level security.
