github for example says if 2FA is lost there is not way to recover.
i have lost a phone number before... and although github also supports other 2FA devices, such as a rotating key app which can be on multiple devices, you have to set up all devices at once. so i can put it on my laptop and my phone, but not my home and my work computer unless i carry one to the other place. phone and laptop is not enough. if i use my bag, both are gone. and i'd have to reset all devices if i ever want to add a new one.
at that point i am more afraid to loose access through stupidity than through theft.
this is what scares me the most about using 2FA.
