Damn, this is really bad.
Mainstream browsers will probably be fine, but there is a long tail of other stuff that will be affected by this:

Quite a few people have sent me the "Passkeys are a trap. Do not use them." post on Substack.
The post recommends people abandon passkeys and stick to passwords + TOTP, citing what appears to be concerns with attestation as the primary reason.
I’ve written a rebuttal as this is really dangerous advice and it's based on some incorrect technical claims.
