    1. Not necessarily 2fa only secures you from direct attacks to the google login, but attackers can gain access another way: session cookie stealing.
    2. 2fa only really exists because people aren’t using better & unique passwords

      Number 2 isn’t true. I could choose a super strong password, but if the company chose to roll their own security and the dev chose to store user passwords in plain text, then their database is hacked, my password is out in the open. This happens all the time, even with huge tech companies.

      That cannot happen with MFA since the password never leaves your hardware key.
