Why can't services just use TOTP for 2fa. It's more secure, more convenient and less work.
Steam's preferred 2FA is getting a code from their app. It looks like it might be TOTP technically but they don't freely give out the secret for use in another app, but there might be ways to extract it.
Google offers TOTP and used to let you set it as the default, but now I guess they want to push their own in app prompt so you have to pick the "try another way" option every time.
Dark patterns are for cowards. Either remove the feature like you want to or just keep it.
