Isn't your computer a single point of failure? A keylogger will get your password database or you manually entered passwords all the same.

Who says I have the same password for my root, my user account, and my LUKS encrypted hard drive? Losing one doesn't mean losing everything like in a Password manager.

Not that, I meant a keyloggers could get the password to your password database in the same way it could get any accounts you log into by typing your password into a browser.
