That's all I'm asking for as a user - thank you for being on the good side. Optimally you allow for multiple MFA options, so that I can e.g. use an authenticator app and a yubikey, as well as a recovery code in my bank.
2FA is a major hassle for support when users get locked out because they smash their phone or change phone numbers or somehow lose access to the 2FA method. But, the benefits of 2FA largely outweigh those downsides for the majority of users. Offering the choice though, is something we think is important.
