Didn’t know this term. After reading I wonder why short lived tokens get this monocle. But yeah I prefer OIDC over token based access as well. Only small downside I see is the setup needed for a custom OIDC provider. Don’t know the right terms out of my head but we had quite the fun to register our internal Jenkins to become a create valid oidc tokens for AWS. GitHub and GitHub Actions come with batteries included. I mean the downside that a huge vendor can easily provide this and a custom rolled CI needs extra steps / infrastructure.
