My GCP Account does not have an Organization & displays "No Organization" What are the drawbacks or negative impact of having No Org?


We have 2 accounts that have super admin.

Account #1 signed up without Workspace.
Account #2 signed up with Workspace.
Our application's project is under Account #1, but displays "No Organization."
Our Primary Domain is verified under Account #2, and does have our Organization on it.
Do you think I should move the project from Account #1 to Account #2?
Or attempt to delete/cancel Account #2, and try to move the primary domain & Organization?

Account #1 has a Firebase Project with Cloud Firestore, if that matters.
