It feels inherently insecure to blast a 2FA code across every device where you've got Hangouts installed. (And if you've got Hangouts installed on the PC where you're logging into, then it's not 2FA anymore.)

I think that may be Project Fi specific. To my knowledge, Hangouts doesn't do SMS anymore except for Project Fi customers, and even prior to them forcibly removing SMS handling from Hangouts on my Samsung and telling me to find something else after an update, it never synced SMS messages it to other Hangouts instances.
