Passkeys are too complicated, so let's have users manage public keys manually instead? You can't be serious.

except passkeys bought you a false sense of security and easy. yeah the happy path is easier because you're just generating new keys... but if the user ever gets a new phone or sit in front of another device, now passkeys are more complicated than the alternative.

sadly the world became too dumbly complacent to question their devices.

Logging in to Bitwarden/1Password/KeePassXC/Strongbox/... takes less than five minutes, even when using sophisticated 2FA.

Would you argue that loading a public key (load it where, actually?) is much faster? How'd you do it practically?

five minutes to click 2 buttons? anyway.

yes, when you get your phone stolen in a trip and can't log into anything.

or when you realize nobody cares for the 5 nerds using those and require an apple or google passkey.
