A hacker who got into your laptop can piggy back on your SSH connections (and also extract all sort of vital data).

Not being able to extract SSH keys helps very little.

Helps more than you might think! Because the other thing Secretive can do is require touch ID for each use of the key. Similarly, you can require a button push from your yubikey.
