Exactly. That second example infuriates me. Just give me something to troubleshoot, for fuck's sake.

It infuriates me because it’s disrespectful. The message insinuates that I wouldn’t be able to figure it out.

Needed to add my phone number for 2FA on a website. Something went wrong :( checked network tab and the error being returned from the API was too short phone number, they'd made an assumption based on the country they were from.

I still had to message their support to let them know, but... They could've made it easier to find out the reason at least.
