But isn't this what the backup codes are for?



Yea, I used to keep my passwords and backup codes in two separate KeePass vaults. Now I use Bitwarden for passwords but still use KeePass for my backup codes.

I use the notes for each entry in Bitwarden to indicate what kind of 2FA I have enabled and whether I have a backup code already stored in the other vault.


Sure. But not everybody has them or they might be on that device...
