The big issue to me is that no one questions why we just collectively gave up on requiring that user should be careful and not lose things. Not so long ago, you had a physical key and only one for that safe, so you knew it was important. Then we made people used to be able to forget everything, lose everything, because it allows to free their mind for things like buying and consuming goods and entertainment. But the issue is not the fact that the key could be lost, the issue it that no one now considers that not being careful is an issue. If we go back to teaching how unique and important a key is, users will take care of keys like my grandpa took care of his safe key, his money in it, his car, his tractor... Everything that are now seen as easy to replace and that users are naturally entitled to be able to recover. I think passkey really does a good job. Just stop forgetting keys, having only one unsaved one, losing your phone or having it stolen because you carelessly display it in public and you're good.
