I have to upload a *new* public key? Why should I have two sets of keys?

This is just insane. My existing password is 8 digits and
alphanumeric, and given that I have to enter it over and over again
(and prove "I'm human", another WTF) when creating updates I'm really
wondering if I want to bother.

Talk about putting up barriers.
