Is this some sort of a convenience feature hidden behind a paywall to justify purchasing their subscriptions or does generating the codes actually cost money? If the latter is the case, how do applications like Aegis do it free of cost?

The reason that 2fa exists is not to protect you if someone gets their hands on your device. It’s to protect you if your “static” credentials leaked from a providers’ database or you otherwise got phished. Using a password manager to handle mfa is totally reasonable.
If you are really worried about the password manager being an intrusion vector, secure your vault with a hardware key.
Agree. That’s another reason to always suggest KeePass!
You can be paranoid and split the two, but most people(99%) will be perfectly fine with KeePass.
It is reasonable yet subpar under a threat model where you do not trust any single provider, which is a model I find appropriate most of the time.
