> But I still have a near-stroke every time I have to do the "forgot my password" loop, or use Duo Mobile/other 2FA.

That's funny, I've stopped caring about remembering most passwords and use the "forgot my password" loop as a login mechanism for rarely accessed sites/services. I also only enable 2FA on important ones like email, github, or banking. Basically my threat model includes my ability to lose things.
