Not sure when the replacement for Azure UserVoice will be live (Teams UV is still active) but I found this very old request and have no idea if this is the new one.. https://feedback.azure.com/d365community/idea/0fa56c4f-b125-ec11-b6e6-000d3a4f0789
It would have been great to access the former site to see the comments on the MFA requests.

I think I understand what the requirement here is - you simply want to require username/password and MFA Authenticator at Windows login without 3rd party and without FIDO2 keys. As far as I know, this is not possible.
Even if it would I would argue this does not really give you a good user experience to require you to bring out your phone every time you need to login to your computer and every time you need to unlock your screen.
What you can do once the user is logged in, you can require MFA to access any cloud resources using Conditional Access. Sure, you can login to the computer but you can't access anything without MFA.
We see best user experience to ask users to enroll for Windows Hello for Business using Face login andnhave cameras that support it. But WHfB does not roam multiple computers so it mostly usable on personal/laptop computers.
