after creating recovery codes using account.createMFARecoveryCodes() do we need to Verify MFA factors type recovery code?

I followed this guide: https://appwrite.io/docs/products/auth/mfa

I tried to verify this using users.listMFAFactors({userId}) and account.listMFAFactors() but I am getting inconsistent results, check the screenshot

when i try to login and verify using recovery codes, it doesn't work... please let me know how this works exactly

TL;DR
Developers are experiencing issues verifying MFA recovery codes after creating them. They've followed the Appwrite guide but are getting inconsistent results when using `users.listMFAFactors({userId})` and `account.listMFAFactors()`. As of now, there isn't a clear resolution provided.
