But attestation for passkeys is dead. Neither Apple's, nor Google's implementation (with negligible exceptions) support it anymore, so any site demanding attestation will immediately disqualify > 99% of all potential users.

Some still might, e.g. for corporate or high security contexts, but I don't think it'll become a mass-adopted thing if things don't somehow drastically change course.

It's still in the standard. They could remove it, but they don't, so from my perspective it's just like how Google wasn't evil. Until they decided otherwise.
