Same problem, would love a solution. The defunct org is screwing my other logins.
Can't leave an org because my account is locked

A while ago, I worked with another company and I was invited to a Team on their tenant as a guest. Their tenant got added to the Organizations drop-down and I could switch over to view that Team.
That company then went out of business more than a year ago, but I still see it in my list of Organizations. I tried to tidy up my orgs list by leaving, but it prompts me to login to that tenant and then tells me that my account is locked. I can't get the account unlocked because the company is no longer operating. Is there a way to remove myself when I can't login? Or just hide the org from the list?

I mean, I see a point where maybe MS thinks it would be better to lock this so users don't accidentally leave an org they are part off.
But there has to be a better way than this. I have multiple dead orgs and teams channels in my teams that I am part off but can't leave, because I don't have the permissions to leave them.
