A significant problem with 2FA codes on a phone (if not backed up) is when the phone breaks or is lost or stolen.
Seems to me a Yubikey can also break or be lost or stolen.
That's why I rejected a Yubikey option and use Aegis instead. I think the risks associated with someone getting hold of my 2FA keys are lower than the risks associated with getting permanently locked out of my accounts due to losing the 2FA keystore.
