If widely adopted, then a compromised e-mail could lead to much deeper access than a single compromised password would (except for those who use the same pw everwhere). I understand the motivation, and agree re: the issues of passwords, th

"Equity should operate just as much, if not more so, by boosting people up than by cutting people down." This is central to the whole problem with this concept of "equity". If the implementation, as you say, _at all_ in
