Using a security key as a ~~password manager~~ passkey seems to resolve this issue (I think?), but I guess the issue is more a problem for the casual user who wouldn't bother with a security key!

Can you elaborate on what it means to use a security key as a password manager? I'm not sure if I understand what you mean.

Whoops, I meant "passkey", I'll edit my original comment
