be it a/b testing or b/s testing, the change seems to have gone into

I'm wondering if I can turn off 2-step authentification now.
I'm curious about the same thing -- I suspect not, and not sure when / if I'll
test it. It would be nice if someone knew.
that's the thing: I don't understand how the parts fit together; what
is the connection between:
(1) 2-step auth
(2) app-specific pw
I would have thought method (1) is good for getting back on board if
you lose
your pw.
method (2) just seems like using a pw like one always does except it's
handed to you.
I may go empirical and try to cancel 2-step and see.
I'd rather learn from others.
