From my G-Suite account (where I'm the only user / admin), it shows two-step verification settings here:

https://myaccount.google.com/signinoptions/two-step-verifica...

That seems to redirect me to the same page linked earlier in this thread (https://myaccount.google.com/security). Taking a look in my admin console, it looks like "Allow users to turn on 2-step verification" is unchecked, so presumably 2-step verification is not enabled for this account. That's exactly what I want, but it seems Google is failing to abide when they think I'm a "hacker". Other people have had the same frustrations[0][1] but there is apparently no way to stop Google requiring additional verification at their whim. Ultimately that means Google controls when I can and can't login to my account, so it ceases to be a usable product for me.

I appreciate your help, though!

Did you enable 2FA from https://admin.google.com/ for your account ?

Dashboard -> select Security -> Basic Settings -> Two-Step Verification setting
