The TOTP code does not add anything to phishing mitigation.

Depends on the exact attack. If its a full MITM (including TLS), no. If its a fake website who don't forward after password-based authentication, yes. U2F would also detect the domain is incorrect, though so does my password manager. Though that's based on a browser extension. I suppose if the browser gets mislead, as would the password manager. And that did happen with LastPass (XSS attack IIRC).
