My understanding is some of the key strength was to low. If 2FA increases the key strength, that should have an impact no?

2FA does not increase the key strength. The key is solely derived from the password. 2FA limits access to somebody who already has the password to get in. The LastPass leak was of a backup, though, for which 2FA does nothing.
I see, that's unfortunate.
