Fwiw, I agree that securetty is a bad idea and should be removed from
the default pam configuration.
There is a login-standing bug report, documenting that securetty breaks
"machinectl login" [1] fwiw.

Can we please revisit this and drop securetty from /etc/pam.d/login for
buster?

Regards,
Michael
