Spent $40 on a Yubikey last year and it just stopped a login attempt from another country

That's a good point, but honestly a strong password manager with unique passwords would have done the same thing for free.

Glad that forty bucks paid off for you.

Yeah, but the real win is that it stops the attempt before you even get a password prompt. A password manager can't stop a phishing site from grabbing your credentials if you type them in. The key just won't work there at all, so you get a hard stop instead of hoping you notice the fake URL.
