Recently, I started playing on Stadia, as they have a two-month free Stadia Pro trial. After signing up/registering, I launched the game and was sent to make a new guardian. Now, I was only going testing Stadia out, so I made guardian and entered the Cosmodrome. After around five minutes of messing around, I quit the game and decided to link my Steam account through Bungie's cross-save. However, for some reason, the account I just made on Stadia became the Host account while my Steam account with 600+ hrs of playtime was overrided. Now, after seeing my main account was now not-accessible, I realized I had to Deactivate the cross-save. However, when I tried to deactivate and separate the 2 accounts, the error message "Cross Save cannot be unlinked for 33 days because you’ve purchased Silver on your Steam account recently." popped up.
Some of you reading this might say, why don't you just delete your Stadia account, so you can unlink the two accounts? Well, I tried. Here's the thing, Deactivating the cross-save requires me to authenticate USING my Stadia account, meaning if I have no Stadia account, I cannot authenticate. I had to contact the google support team in order to get my account back.
Although my timeout is only 33 days, some people on reddit had it a lot worse:

I have searched the internet for people that had the same problem, but I found no working solution. Help is appreciated!
