I'm asking out of practical curiosity, what do you actually use for that? Google authenticator only works on one device, which is a single point of failure. Authy allows multiple devices, which enables both backups and the defeat you described. What are some other ways?
Crappy sms 2FA is, in my experience, completely unavoidable, because many critical services have that as the only option.

I have used all three I gave you in my previous comment (all my critical services now all use U2F though, which is vastly superior) > Google authenticator only works on one device you can scan the qr code on more than one device you can also print the qr code out (or write the key down) you can also export the entire list to another device inside google authenticator no need for online storage of anything
