Agreed, unfortunately.
Passwords are easy to understand, transparent and portable, and when used with good hygiene (always using password manager and generating unique & strong passwords for everything) there isn’t yet a strong case for anything else.
I’m not happy with everything about passkeys either. I am fine with them as an additional method, but I would never use them as the only method.
That said, I had a much easier time getting my kids onboard with a FIDO2 security key than I would have a password manager.
