I used a long and supercomplicated password for one of my accounts that i access intermittently. Why I have it is a long story, but I only log into it once or twice a month to check if there is something that needs my attention.
Usually the login is in incognito, guest mode, and even from different locations and machines. Google asks for a second factor (i dont have it on for my accounts) like phone verification for my usual accounts (not so complicated password) but not for the one with complex password. So I think the level of extra steps/security is linked with how complex your password is. Not so sure if this is a good thing or bad. But, I hope they should continue basing their security measures based on the security measures you take.
