No real need to.
However they should be storing hashed passwords instead of plaintext. If they are not, I dread to think what the underlying account codebase is like.
2FA is nice for extra account protection but this site doesn’t jump out to me as something that _needs_ it.
Not a fan of recovery questions personally. Recovery questions are just an extra step to password recovery. The thing is, they are generally either answers that are publicly a available if you know who the account belongs to or they are filled with red-hearings which often just gets forgotten by your “average jo/e” because they are rarely used.
However I wouldn’t say this website is very friend to data security. It’s well know that your average joe will reuse passwords. It only takes one DB dump to now have email/passwords which can be spammed into other more sensitive sites.
