Better security almost always adds inconveniences, so there are cost versus
benefit tradeoffs and it is rare to have "easy" workarounds.  A laptop that
could
be snatched by bad actors has different requirements than a server in a
secure
location.  "Secure boot" is mostly theater until we have unified kernels,
so ranks
high on the cost/benefit scale.
