Hey, you can turn on biometric 2FA on your smartphone, or use TOTP (Kite web -> My profile -> Password and security).

The static PIN is a legacy hole that has to be plugged. Coincidentally, we wrote to the regulator about this exact same matter recently. We'll hopefully see a regulatory announcement mandating "real" 2FA for everyone.
