If I lost my phone, I would still have access to three different recovery methods:

- I have my recovery codes

- I have access to my recovery email address

- I have access to a TOTP token

I would hope this is sufficient to persuade Google's authentication infrastructure to let me in.

Hope is part of every strategy that doesn't have infinite cost.
