I think at some point goolge used SMS 2FA as a sole factor in account recovery. So there, you really were worse off with SMS 2FA enabled.

- robbya 7y agoThis is really a criticism that Google called their system 2FA but actually was using it as a sole factor. That's bad security and bad naming. Had they actually used it as a second factor, then you would have seen a security benefit.
