One of my favorite side effects of this feature is that, Firebase Authentication, which is entirely run by another segment of Google, constantly throws errors about this to the user, which they don't understand.
I get a support request at least once a week from a user who "Doesn't understand why they can't verify their email".
Turns out, their Gmail account already verified it by clicking the link before they opened the email, and they didn't think to try signing in, because they couldn't even verify the email.
