They do offer 2FA via SMS. This is AFAIK the ONLY option for Android/non-Mac users. Why are those users less deserving of decent security? Apple still sells and offers services outside their platforms, so they're still customers potentially with hundreds or thousands of dollars worth of purchases and CCs attached. FFS Nintendo has better 2FA options than Apple for non-Apple platforms.

Because they don't own an Apple device or have iMessage, which is the entire point of this discussion?

So Apple only cares about security for Apple platform users and not all users of Apple services? Such commitment to security...
