Before this new wave of SMS trash, we just had TOTP codes that 1password could auto fill for me on any device in any location. Now i need to pull out my phone constantly and pay for international roaming or setup SMS forwarding to travel even if I don't need the number. Yay security!

If the argument is that phone number can always be recovered from real world identity, link the damn authenticator app to SMS instead of having to hand out your phone number to every company in the world.
