So, at `/admin/users/n` where a user has 2FA enabled, the button to remove it appears. As a moderator, I am unable to do so and it just shows:

You are not permitted to view the requested resource.

So the issue is being a moderator and not an admin? We should confirm this is intentional next week @dax
