Do Passkeys even support attestation? What would they even attest to, given that the credential is effectively not bound to any secure hardware?

To my knowledge, Apple has ripped out their "anonymous attestation" service together with introducing Passkeys in iOS 16; before that, requesting attestation was an option to opt out of Passkey syncing (and create a device-bound credential).
