TOTP is not going anywhere for much of the Internet. Hold on while I get a Yuibikey to my dad who thinks "folders can't be in other folders" because that's not how they work in real life.

TOTP is a great security enhancement, and while phishable, considerably raises the bar for an attacker.

The fact that TOTP is mentioned as a bad practice in this document is an indicator that this should not be considered a general best practices guide. It is a valid best practice guide for a particular use case and particular user base.

The document distinguishes between enterprise-facing and public-facing systems. For enterprise-facing (government employees, contractors, etc.), it's talking about discontinuing use of TOTP. For public-facing systems, it doesn't impose any restrictions, since (as you're saying) the general public really needs options.
