Unfortunately, this is a weak security practice that really is used everywhere.

This we can agree on.

I'm not going to go down the route of arguing whether or not the bank should allow it to be easy to change your email address, but if somebody has compromised your email with the intention of compromising your other accounts, they are going to change the email addresses and passwords on those accounts before you have a chance to react, and you're going to be on the phone with each one of those institutions anyway. You don't hear a lot of this happening anyway, because it's usually a lot safer to con somebody out of their money than it is to smash and grab out of their accounts, and probably as easy if not easier.

As for the sporting goods store, I can imagine a couple of reasons for their decision, but it probably has as much to do with spamming your email as it does security, if it has anything to do with security at all.

I don't know your specifics, but implementing adequate security and being mildly infuriating often go hand in hand by necessity.

Let me grab a couple of coconuts to clap together and it's on.

You're going to wear this out to the bars and clubbing, right?

Does Minecraft's fishing mechanic count?

My first impression was that this puts an awful lot on the player to remember, that wouldn't even be a thing for somebody who actually lived in the world.

I think I could tolerate some of this though if games would stop having main storyline plots that revolved around rush rush rush. Looking at you, cyberpunk 2077.

Wouldn't they be knee high high heels? They are knee high, and the heels are high.

I'm disappointed, I expected more cheese.
