It's quite confusing for technical users as well. Google has or is in the process of deprecating TOTP, and will make new users/accounts to use something else based on their android app (which is quite likely proprietary and/or tied to gms, push notifications etc.) if they don't use hardware keys. Or they'll force you to use SMS, which is also worse than TOTP. I think it is still possible to use TOTP if you jump through some hoops, but this is yet another case of some rubbish policy.
