Easy to duplicate though.

Yeah, I still have an improvised duplicate of a key like this from a motel I stayed at a few years ago. They only had one key for the four of us, so I quickly made a copy out of cardboard.

If that guy gets any better he'll start doing it with 1 hand behind his back.

That's ancient LOL. I had a key like that for my dorm room back in 2007/2008.

I remember going on a cruise in the 90's, the cabin keys looked just like that.

The biggest issue with these keys is that unless they're made to only insert one way (using a guide rail or notch or something), one key can potentially open two doors (if you can find the "mirror" lock.

Is that really the biggest issue? I'd say the risk of people making copies is worse.

I remember a room key like that at one of the Disney world hotels. This woulda been in the late 90s or early 00s. Can’t remember which trip exactly.

I remember these. From the era between actual keys and the current digital cards or whatever they are.
