I just dont buy the argument that it would be that expensive for the governments to provide certified keychain fobs that provide hardware based identification.

That was an option for the past 15+ tears at least in some EU countries. Its just not very convenient (garbage tier software they bought didn’t help either).
It's pretty expensive to deal with all of the technical support and identity verification work when people lose their devices and need to have credentials reset.
It's even more expensive to have your country's digital ID held hostage by the US or its big tech players.
How do the apps bootstrap identity? Do they just use Apple/google (that seems really bad), or do they have you do some verification and input a token into the app somehow?
