Hopefully this will be compatible with WebAuthN in practice and encourage web sites to implement it (in a compatible manner). It often does take Apple's heft to force a change across the web.
Most importantly, hopefully web sites will implement support for multiple authenticators, so you can actually use this safely without relying on a cloud-synced solution.
I hope this pushes out other, less secure and more tedious 2FA methods. However, once it becomes popular, sign in with WebAuthN only will likely not be enough, as attackers learn to attack it (e.g. stealing software-based tokens, adding a cloud-synced device, hijacking already-authenticated sessions from compromised machines)
