Description
Here's what keybase.io tells me to type at the command line:
to remove/revoke this device
keybase device remove '8882163e9250c4eb9596f5ce39282318'
copying and pasting gives me Bad Device ID error as follows:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Keybase>keybase device remove '8882163e9250c4eb9596f5ce39282318'
Error parsing command line arguments: Bad Device ID length: 34
omitting the quotes solves the problem:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Keybase>keybase device remove 8882163e9250c4eb9596f5ce39282318
- ERROR Can't revoke the current device.

Research direction
Start with the keybase.io device-removal instructions and reproduce the documented keybase device remove command on Windows using the device ID shown in the report. Check the CLI's device-remove argument handling; done means the website command no longer produces a Bad Device ID error and the current-device response remains correct.
