But why would the person whose account it actually is want to use 2FA,
when he can just click and his saved password will fill the password
field, rather than have them either send a text or email, have to go the
text or email, copy, go back to the webpage, and paste it. He`s knows
it`s his account, or if he`s logging into someone else`s account then he
doens`t care that it`s not his. If they let someone just use a password
and he knows the password, why would he not just use the password? It`s
so much simpler and quicker.
