Even owning a phone, I really hate phone-based 2FA. What happens if I lose my phone? I've lived in foreign countries for almost my entire adult life, and no phone number is permanent. When I move, I need a new phone.
My Indian friends tell me it's much worse there. All of their government services are tied to a specific phone number that they must keep forever. So all of the ex-pats living here still pay for their Indian phone number back home so that they can still interact with the government when they need to.
