Situations like these are not comfortable, and luckily, they don't happen often (but they do appear with every kind of software protection).
I have to say that I have never had this kind of issues with the online protection implemented by Apple. I might have to log in again from time to time, but it's just a matter of entering my password.
With times, things seem to have gone worse, since I never remember an issue with eMagic's Logic hardware key. I have used it for more years than I have the eLicenser, and i can't remember a single issue.
Please note: I'm not against the hardware key. I am against the incredibly low quality management software. I can no longer believe in problems in my Macs, since there are so many users with problems identical to mine, on different systems. And it si not a rare evenience, since it happens to me each two-three times I run something protected by the eLicenser (be it a VSL software or Dorico).
Maybe it is time to reconsider the provider of your protection solution.
