I think it's an interesting view into how we think about our lives that the first scenario listed is about work data and coworkers, not loved ones or personal data:

"Imagine that you die with computer passwords in your head, leaving coworkers without access to critical files."

I enjoy my job, and my coworkers are great people, but when thinking about things as serious as planning for post-mortem, I'll admit that thinking about how it would affect my employer ranks much lower on the list.

I kinda agree, on my deathbed I doubt I'll be thinking about work passwords!

I can't really think of much of anything work-related that should be a secret known by only one person and released upon death. I feel like part of my job is ensuring that at least one other person knows how to access our accounts. We actually use an encrypted password manager to which at least two of us have access.
