I have.

I do not believe a technological work-around like this will work for the rest of my life. I can easily envision BankID in the future not working, due to "security concerns" about Google service emulation.

I wouldn't call that "a technological work-around" for the reason that many banks already require the duopoly. Instead, I see this as an easier way to explain to them the duopoly problem.

I don't think they care that alternatives exist, or that they can help diminish the duopoly.

It's cheaper for them to support only two phone systems/ecosystems, and from discussions on the /e/ list I'm sure BankID knows these exist.
