Basic usability? The security theatre is making computing more and more yanky every year, with questionable benefits, and with no regard to the drop in efficiency.
For most accounts I don't care much if they are compromised. And have never been compromised even with a lot of "worst practices".
Would you agree also that MFA should be mandated for everybody's doors? Or to my bike?
