yeah, an easy gap jump. It's on the phone but too many are lost, left at home, stolen, or parents let the kid use it. To fix this we'll just put a chip in you, easy peasy.
Someday yes, but despite those complications you mentioned I think they'll settle for the smartphone step.
If you don't bring yours somewhere, they'll either ask for your ID and use some government software to do a lookup, or they'll just refuse service. "This is (current year)...why don't you have your smartphone with you? Why don't you have a smartphone at all?" Heck, I think Google once asked me for a BACKUP phone number. So apparently we should all be running around with two smartphones.
It won't be smartphones. It'll be a chip in the hand.
The tech already exists.
