Forcing users to go to Authn MFE results in a bad UX. We need to let the platform decide on login and registration.
Imagine this scenario: you have a TPA setup and want users to log in there directly. you can have this by adding "THIRD_PARTY_AUTH_HINT": "some-provider-slug" and if users go to /login it redirects them to the TPA login/registration page but the current logic takes users to the Authn MFE and they need to know that they have to click on another button which results in a bad UX!
