for the record, that does *not* "bypass everything", it's a *second* factor
after all. Further, if recovery keys are hashed they do not leak information.
For others it varies, but I do not like that sort of blanket statement without
implying any reasonable vector at all, we and most unix system have such
information in one place /etc/shadow, our shadow in /etc/pve/ and consorts,
it needs clear documentation about what files are sensible (you should send a
patch for that) but that's it.
(and as said, splitting it up will not avoid leaking all of them in a backup vs. just
one of it).
