macOS can in fact be configured to use a third party idp, including interactive elements, on loginwindow.
So, you could build your own through the ExtensibleSingleSignOn and Extensible Enterprise SSO macOS plugin API. You would do touchid, and then have it pop your own custom window/app, providing a prompt through that API, except it's just a hardcoded value (or some shit idk)
So yes, macOS can in fact do that. Just not out of the box. I strongly believe that it is a glaring omission, or at least something they should gate through lockdown mode. idk!

Notably macOS cannot do this
Careful with absolutist statements :)

If you create a piv certificate on a yubikey and just plug it in while logged in, it automatically registers it as a login method.
Yeah but then it will only use the certificate on the yubikey and not ask for a password so we’re back to 1FA
It's 2FA because you need the pin for the Yubikey as well.
