First time I'm seeing anyone suggest that MFA and biometrics are less secure than a password.

Also you have to consider that companies like Google, Apple, Microsoft, are making decisions based on what's good for most users, not a single user.

I think they make decisions based on what is best for business (which may include locking you as much as possible in their platform) Very unsure that the named companies really do things for users good.
