Also, the kind 4454>4455 bootstrapping process assumes that at least one other client storing the genesis secret encryption key is accessible. That may not always be the case. If my phone is smashed, I may lose all clients at once in an irrecoverable fashion. In the past, I only needed to back-up a single secret: my identity nsec. Now I also have to track & backup multiple secret encryption keys across multiple clients. That's bad UX.

Yes, I agree the UX need to be improve, but I think you're misunderstand some points - Client A create a encryption key, user use it for encrypt/decrypt stuffs - Then user use Client B, Client B see user has set up encryption key in Client A. Then Client B request to share the encryption key from Client A. Client A share it. - Only one encryption key there, there are no multiple encryption keys
