This is rather brilliant work, but i would suggest thinking carefully before using to secure your production systems. When a sysadmin is woken by a page at three in the morning, becoming calm enough to be able to log in may be a Sisyphean task.

Now, I hate that @#&%ing bird instead of a buzzer.
They never tested coercion. "One reason we did not do this is because it is unethical to threaten test subjects in order to verify that our system is fully coercion resistant." That's a problem.
