The SQRL idea could certainly be implemented under FIDO and he doesn't seem to make that distinction. FIDO is a platform for integrating many authentication technologies/companies/standards. It is a shared layer that biometrics, devices, etc can plug in to and authenticate. There is WAY more choice. For instance, company X might want to use a SQRL solution. If it is FIDO compliant they could use SQRL anywhere FIDO authentication is available. This could now include Microsoft software and properties. It is unlikely that SQRL would ever be directly supported by Microsoft. FIDO is possibly the way in.
