    Isn’t a true air gap pretty solid though? Aside from someone actually coming into your house and interfacing directly it would be pretty hard to bypass, or am I on Mt. Dunning-Kruger over here this time?

      Most online services would struggle to provide their service to their users if all of their servers were air gapped.

      You are correct.

      The uncomfortable part is what I’ve learned about the challenges to gain physical access.

      Most physical security is equally appalling to most Cybersecurity.

      Edit: Incredibly unfun exercise: pick a physical security device you rely on, personally, and do a YouTube search for “device name break in test”. I’ve rarely been able to find a video more than 3 minutes long, for any product, at all. And the actual breaking is usually mere seconds in the middle bit.
