Because you can't knock on the front door

There are few things more frustrating than spending the majority of your digital life on Google, relying on Gmail to send and receive emails, Google Drive for storage, Google Calendar for your appointments, Google Photos for your photo archive, etc., only to discover that you can no longer get into your Google account either because you've forgotten your password or because of a malicious hacker.

If you can't access your Google Account, you risk losing touch with loved ones, business contacts, and clients, being unable to access appointments, and even missing important updates about your use of the service or other services you subscribe to.

All these issues can lead to huge losses that will take a long time to recover from. This is mainly because Google will not give you access to your account for a few days due to security measures.
