Section 10 Security Considerations https://w3c.github.io/did-core/#security-considerations says:

Protecting against an attack when a system is compromised requires external key-signing hardware.

First, a reference substantiating this assertion should be provided. Second, is the ability to reliably use DIDs on compromised systems really in scope for this specification? Why or why not?
