Microsoft plays the same games with their authenticator app.

No they don’t. I run an M365/Azure shop and not a single user out of hundreds has given their mobile number to Microsoft.
My personal consumer MSFT/Xbox account also has no mobile number attached.

Yes they do when your M365 using employer insists that you have to use the authenticator app on your personal phone and won't provide an alternative option.

So far all the services that required MS authenticator for me turned out to be perfectly fine standard TOTP.
