Yeah, file-based keys managing millions of dollars exist in the crypto space too. “Manageable” does not mean “good”. The real pudding is this: hardware wallet users fall prey to phishing scams all the time and lose their life savings. It’s a horrible design for an auth system.
There are so many UX reasons why you would never want to conflate a login token with a key that can mathematically and instantaneously eviscerate your life savings. But to put it simply; there’s no way anyone’s grandma can use this system, wherein with something like browser Passkeys she has a chance.
