I feel like an old person for hating those things.
* I have a password manager because I have to manage 100s of passwords already and most aren't moving to Google anytime soon.
* There are a few occasions where I've had to share my credentials with friends or family. It's nice to change the password temporarily and not give them access to my whole Google account.
* I don't want to sign into Google on every devices/computer. Similar to the passwordless recommendation: I don't want to sign into email on every device I use the account on.
* I don't want Google to know anything about me it doesn't have to. I have a Facebook account and Google account, but I rarely log in. I switched my email away from Google years ago for this reason.
* What if I want to create a test account or second account to play around?
I like the idea of single signon, but I don't trust the Big Boys with my data. Exclusively having "sign up with" buttons usually makes me leave the site.
I wish we had better federated sign-in solutions, but open-id probably won't be it... and U2F while cool won't solve the account recoverability problem.
