Also don’t forget that not everyone expects perfection and a canny attacker can exploit that. It’s really easy to focus on how you’d avoid trojans, keyloggers, etc. but I’d also ask how likely it is that if someone sent a message from your email address claiming you’d lost your token in a minor accident, etc. that they’d believe it - or simply accept it if commits started showing up with a new key (maybe with an upgraded crypto system) since 99% of Git users never check those.
