Imparfait versus Passé Composé "Au quotidien, faire les courses est devenu un vrai cauchemar : il fallait que je lise toutes les étiquettes !" VS "Même les produits que je n'aurais jamais suspectés de contenir du gluten m'étaient à présent interdits à jamais. Il a fallu que j'apprenne à cuisiner.."

I'm guessing example 1 uses the imparfait since it's a "continuing action", but isn't example 2 also a "continuing action" even with the fullstop separating the two?
