There's really no reason to use SMS 2FA for GitHub though, you can literally pick anything else.
Anything else could be lost. I can always get new SIM card for this number. I don't need to backup it and I can't accidentally delete it. That's the biggest reason for me to link phone number everywhere. I'd hate to lose access to my GitHub account.
