This comment makes the most sense to me in this thread.

Further, IMO, sure it's a bug that one can say they control support@company.com. But IMO the real issue is lousy, permissive authorisation that gives access to anything simply by virtue of controlling a @company.com mail. Surely some HR/tech person, when an employee is being onboarded, should be enabling access to some core systems (probably by adding them to a group), and the default state for an account with no groups should be no access.

In any large enough organisation, IME there's a lot of ways to get a @org.com email, and too many people/systems have the ability to create an email than a single centralised IT team.
