Sure, but the man on the Clapham omnibus is going to use Apple's, or whatever's, that's what I don't like - it seems set up to serve incumbents rather than to stand on technical merit.
There's precedent for only supporting certain walled gardens, too: Google MFA sign-in supports Yubikeys et al. only if used in Chrome; in Firefox for example you get the prompt and everything, it just stubbornly refuses to accept it on touch.

I'm not sure I understand your argument. Right now pretty much all people except us geeks either: - Re-use the same password everywhere; or - Use their OS's password manager; or - Use their browser's password manager. How is this any worse?

Ok you made me look because I was sure I had been doing this every morning; Myth busted - Logged in to Google using a Yubikey via Firefox (Windows 11) no problems at all.
