There is a couple of things I wouldn’t agree with. SMS as authentication factor is certainly bad idea, but it’s not MFA problem. Many services support OTP and modern password manager is expected to support it too.
Unique 25 character password is much easier to steal than your biometric information. All hackers need is a successful MITM attack (key logger?) or a database dump containing unhashed passwords. They could be some script kiddies from Russia or India running an automated attack on some old version of WordPress. For biometric information they would need to get access to it first and hacking your device (or getting physical access to you) if you protect it properly may not be feasible for majority of them.
