It only works in a couple of situations and it's difficult to manage. When the site doesn't support it (which is almost all of them), when you don't have USB, when you lose or forget your YubiKey, when you don't have a phone with NFC or lose it, when you can't afford the device, or it's difficult for the user to set up, etc it fails. Now you need a different factor to finish logging in, which is probably weaker, so attackers will try to degrade this first factor to force the second weaker one.
It's a nice-to-have but not even close to a universal solution.
