I'm not sure we really disagree, if I understand your response correctly. I _do_ think there can be improvement (and, probably, should).
My main objection was calling for using a device that is expensive, requires special/additional phone plans, and doesn't _really_ solve the problem (especially for most of the global population). I have a rather diverse set of friends by age, income and technical experience - and smartphones aren't the majority.

But like I said, authenticating systems need to be fool-proof enough to not allow false positives yet flexible enough to allow people to screw up and get a fresh start without wiping all their data. These two goals, by definition are the equivalent of trying to look towards the left and right at the same time.
