I have turned the 2F authentication on, found it a nuisance, then turned it off. So that part works. However, this does not mean that app-specific passwords will continue to work. Someone has to try.

That may be true - but I have many clients for whom passwords are already a problem - this is going to make it even worse! Sigh. I guess it's job security for me.?

It requires two factor authentication to be turned on to generate the app specific password. Can you turn two factor authentication off after the password has been generated?

Even if you can you really shouldn't. TFA is a huge security improvement for your iCloud account.
