On a server I have a public key auth only for root account. Is there any point of logging in with a different account?

    Then you can’t gain root privileges on your server. Are you really arguing for less security because it’s inconvenient?

    This is end-user behavior and it’s honestly embarrassing. You should realize your security posture is much more important than “I left my phone on the other room”

      This thread is embarrassing,
      The person you’re responding to could wipe your ass with a cli.

      You’ve accessed your server as a user, and then you su - to root.
      You don’t need a phone or a yubi or a dreamcatcher, or a unicorn.
      Please stop with your pretension.
      You’re so far out of your league that it’s embarrassing to me that I’ve bothered to answer.
