We develop a Shopify app. Sometimes, we need collaborator access to a customer's store to check for a bug or do a setup. Today, I noticed that Shopify requires me to identify via passport or ID before letting me request acceess to a customer's store.

What the hell? Why do I need to upload my ID to Shopify for this? This is already a super secure process where my customer needs to confirm my account to give access.
