Sorry if I missed a discussion around this. But why are there "Cryptographic Keys" in addition to the keys in the storage box?

See the header here: https://github.com/openwallet-foundation/architecture-task-force/blob/main/docs/key-management-services.md

There are "keys" you use to manage "digital objects"

And there are "keys" that are "digital objects".

This is especially useful when you have newer crypto that is not well supported, like bls12381, zkps, etc..
