This is an advantage of USB P11. In Windows 8 and later there doesn't
even have to be a driver installed, since WinUSB comes with the
operating system already and can be loaded automatically if the
device follows some Microsoft-invented USB extensions. Only one
PKCS#11 DLL is neccessary, and nothing more.

It would be a much better candidate if there was not such a thick
layer of components involved which serve little to no purpose.

In principle I do not argue strongly against PIV, I generally agree
with your observations.

But it would be nice to try to do even better. :)
