The problem he is describing here is mostly with enrollment and account recovery and not so much passkeys. The risk of getting locked out of accounts exists whether or not you use passkeys. Code based authenticators are not any better in this regard. Enrollment and recovery are the hardest part of identity. Passkeys are meant to address phishing risks specifically. I would love to see us do better on account recovery whether or not passkeys get adopted. The thing is, passkeys adoption is pretty slow and it has little to do with the issues described in this article. People just find it complicated and confusing. Until it is dead simple and the default, it will not find broad adoption.
