It's just jaw-dropping how naive passkey has been in trying to pretend browser implementers can do the right thing for users, when the vast epic & total security threats you describe are so readily & obviously apparent. The unwillingness to support real security keys as is the case with linux is just further fuel on the pyre of what a shit not-actually-pro-user attempt this new regime really is. It's all so mediated, so centralized, in big cloud shit.
There's this anti-user mania that users will fuck everything up so we absolutely cannot let them do things like export keys. But this chicken-little sky-is-falling pretense just keeps being an excuse for bad tradeoffs that in no way favor real actual people at all.
