Also got this letter of happiness. I don't mind 2FA, already had it set up. But PyPi is weird. I wanted to add a secondary 2FA device for backup, but they would not just let me do it. I had to download recovery codes first. But what am I going to do with them? Unlike 2FA tools there's no convenient way to store them. But because they insisted (and they really did by immediately asking me to burn one of them) I just saved them into a random file on my local disk. I suppose I could delete them, but I would rather not have gotten them in the first place.
