How so?

As another person pointed out, this is quite literally what krypt.co's Krypton app does and it integrates with existing U2F/FIDO standards so either a hard or soft device can be used.
I find that quote odd too. I find the $10 USB-only ones useful, I just wish they had dual normal/micro USB like some flash sticks.
I don't want Bluetooth, NFC or software u2f devices for security reasons, but I also think they could each have additional support problems if given to family members.
The ideal option for me would be an applet on a smartcard in my phone's 2nd sim bay and a hard power toggle for the 2nd bay. Then I suppose my phone could also provide proxying of u2f as a USB device.
But last I looked Android was blocking access to simcard slots for general purpose..
Krypt.co looks pretty nice, I have a Yubikey and andOTP but I hate either getting up to fetch the hardware key or fumbling about for the right TOTP code, so the soft-approve by Krypton looks like the most convenient option, and reasonably secure, to boot.
How so?
