These are the same companies that don't support second factors, only have their app as a second factor, or only SMS second factor. Is it too much to ask for smart card or token (yubikey) support?

Sure, but one strong complex password is much easier to maintain and remember than checks vault 71 individual logins each with unique complex passwords.

My password vault is also only accessible from my local network or from a device that's been within that network and logged in to my vault while it was there. (I'm not using public servers to sync between devices)
