This happened to me recently with verification to Coinbases's KYC system. I was repeatedly denied verification and after contacting their support on X (the only method of contacting support without logging in is social media) they gave me the same ring around that you've experienced. Ultimately I solved the issue by using my girlfriend's phone to take the pictures of my license.
The root of the issue in my case is probably caused by my camera's low quality pictures from a lack of AI post processing since I use Graphene OS. It sucks that you can no longer easily contact a human when you're really stuck.
I found that building my configuration on a virtual machine was the best way to go. This way I was not desperate to get things working and simply moved when I felt like all my essential programs were in place.
The truth is that it become a race to the bottom with a lot of open source projects, specially the ones that are not hard to replicate.
If the author made the project GPL, someone else would create a similar library with a more permissive license, which would end up taking the market and making the original library irrelevant.
