I dont think my yubikey receives SMS

Yubikeys are secure, but the most popular second factor is SMS, followed by authenticators, which are better than SMS in my opinion.

MFA does not imply bulletproof security.

Well since this discussion is in a thread about 1password I think it's worth pointing out that 1password doesn't even support SMS as an MFA option [1].
