The concept of nsec/npub itself is liberating, sure other id schemes have existed (pgp, ssh keys, user/password) but they all fail in various ways (too technical, not portable, not fully developed idea, rely on memory).

I GET nsec/npub in a way that I never really understood ssh keys or pgp for some reason even though they are very similar there are also other protocols that are similar but you never hear of them....

I can also see govts picking up the idea, as much as it is a terrifying thought, but a real world id tied to nsec/npub like id that is tied to your drivers license, building permits, etc could help with the govt burocracy while keeping that data more private.
