Which approach do you think is better, and why?
Or do you think there is an even better way to use a hardware security token to unlock drives having LUKS full disk encryption?

FIDO2 is great. Only thing I am scared of is losing it/them. So a backup access becomes the issue IMHO.
You can have multiple ways to unlock luks container, what’s the issue?
Every way is a security risk in itself. For example if my home burns down I lose x% of the ways. y% can potentially break. z% can potentially be lost to my stupidity. What if I get in a car accident and hit my head and get amnesia and forget a mandatory password: for these cases there are different retrieval strategies, but obviously are ‘stressful’ to set up to stay relatively secure. What can I say, these are the thoughts I have about this topic.
