What happens to the account access if the passkey-registered device dies?
You can have more than one passkey.
You can still use password + 2fa
You can use google oauth.
You can use a YUBI key
You should probably have a primary and secondary auth for every site.
So, losing a passkey isn't a lost account?
Almost every company has some way to work around the 2FA loss.
