Just to state it explicitly: this is not just unconventional and feels unexpected, but there is a need to reorder steps in this flow so 1. you don't enter a pw in vain when you thereafter fail to validate via email, and especially 2. password gets validated against requirements before taking another step which currently leads to problem 1.
