The problem here is how many services have been moving to forced 2FA lately (presumably because their users keep getting their re-used passwords leaked).

I'd move to 1Password (from KeePass) just to deal with these obnoxious 2FA requirements - except many of them, adding insult to injury, are SMS-only. (Feature idea for 1Password? Assign me a phone number that will automatically consume SMS 2FA codes and type them into browsers for me?)

Oh, I regularly use 2FA on individual sites. I just don't see the point of using 2FA to access passwords for sites which, if important, have 2FA enabled themselves. 4FA?
