  Gemini said C Why not A? It's because PATs are useful for scripting and automation, but they are not ideal for interactive Git access. Users would have to create and manage PATs, which can be cumbersome, and the PATs need to be stored securely. They also have an expiry date, and so need to be refreshed. This increases administrative overhead and doesn't minimize credential prompts for interactive use.
