I've heard the exact opposite for security: defense-in-depth. For example, IdP with Okta and 2FA with Duo. This seems much better to me.



Agreed.

To add something useful to the conversation & giving the benefit of the doubt: maybe the parent was describing a situation where an org didn't have a cohesive security plan. If half your people are using one service, and the other half are using another, you've got a problem. I suppose this can blow out in complexity, and maybe risk(?), once you're stacking services (IdP, MFA, ...).
