I'm curious. Does pass really rely on the entire web-of-trust model that
PGP has? For pass in particular, web-of-trust doesn't appear
particularly applicable if you're using it for your own personal
password management.

Are there use cases of yours where web-of-trust does come into play?

Would love to understand and learn more.

Thanks,
