But this is exactly the problem: Passkeys as a core principle require that there is a third party that manages access between the user and a service. That's the entire idea.

In the absolute best-case scenario, the user gets to choose which third party to trust and could even switch to a different one later - but the general dependence on a third party will always stay.

It's DRM for passwords.
