Nice intro but this could be complemented about some insight about the philosophy of Two-Factor authentication.
> an attacker could capture a password as it was being transmitted
I think this could be amended to rather point to the factors of auth: something you know, something you have, something you are. OTP could have also prevented social engineering attacks and phishing where only the password was phished.
Also for the conclusion I'm missing some info about U2F which seems to fix the problems with TOTP secrets described in the last paragraph.
