Are you sure that you can't use a different TOTP generator? There's a difference between telling you to use Authy and still being able to use a different app

Yes I'm sure, hence why I specifically mentioned that. Try the sign up procedure yourself. It REQUIRES 2fa and it has to be Authy's non-standard token or SMS. No option for regular TOTP.
