Apple ID Two Factor Can Not Be Turned off.
While in most cases, it should be on, and left on, there are times that a user may need to have it off, but that is not possible.

I have sent the following to apple.com/feedback and urge others to do the same.

Apple ID Two Factor Authorization Needs an Off Switch.

While security is important, and Two Factor Authorization is a good way to improve it, it does not always work as intended.

The decision to use it or not should be up to the user, NOT Apple. That it can not be turned off by the user is a problem that needs to be fixed.
