Security is a pain in the butt…. we’ve been trying to encourage
people to use 2F at the small university where I work… it’s like
pulling teeth! Most people turn it back off after less than a day. Users

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

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.
