It sounds utopian except you still have to pay for a cell plan on said device, no? How else to obtain a phone number for MFA?

No, just connected via wifi. I don't use it outside the house. The MFA token comes via the banking app itself, not via SMS.
If it came by SMS my daily driver would receive it.
You already have a cell plan. It doesn't have to be attached to the same device.
Hopefully by not using MFA that depends on SMS.
Unfortunately there are non-SMS MFA that are still tied to a phone number, and you may be forced into using them for some context. Duo Mobile is one.
