On a server I have a public key auth only for root account. Is there any point of logging in with a different account?

    Lots of self-important, irrational, hand-wavy responses to this question as usual.

    Assuming you are the only user (sounds like it) and you secure your client device properly, then no, there is no reason not to do what you propose. Go ahead and do it, you’ll save yourself lots of redundant typing and clicking.

    Others here can keep performing their security theater to ward off the evil spirits.

      This is terrible advice.
