>The only real problem with passwords is that humans are extremely bad at those without an aid of a password manager (when they’re no longer words but turn into pre-shared tokens)

Human are also bad at not losing/breaking their magical security totem. I need to know that I can easily backup codes to any of these hardware tokens for if/when one is lost. Ultimate security be damned.

Whats wrong with authenticating multiple tokens and backing up the physical tokens?

I'd rather know that each token is unique and not wonder how many copies of the token exist.
