If this gets implemented it will be the first step in showing that passkeys are a viable alternative to passwords in a meaningful way.

That is, there is no vendor lock in to multinational corps only interested in their bottom line and selling your data. They aren't tied to a device that can be lost, stolen or broken, or requiring you to have multiple devices just in case; and not tied to biometrics.

Lastly this means there is a proper open source, offline version that is portable across devices, browsers, and ecosystems. Putting the user back in control.
