You can configure alternative phone numbers to receive the SMS code. (Family members, friends).

They would only get a message if you hit "try another way" and choose one of your alternative numbers during the login challenge.

Where is this option?

g.co/2sv, login, click on the phone option and just add more numbers.
Thanks looks like I have disabled 2FA couple of years back, dont want to enable it.
Careful or you will regret it... (either if the password is lost or if you get a new device)
Or if you change countries. The only thing able to save me was my open tab from my computer that thankfully I only put to sleep before travelling.
