I just tested the original iRule as shared with the community and it seems to be working fine in 14.1.4. One thing I notice in your version is that you removed the conditional 'set cookie' from the HTTP_RESPONSE part. The original version only sets a cookie when an user has successfully performed the MFA. Your version sets the cookie every time the HTTP_RESPONSE is being triggered. This doesn't seem right to me.
