I'm sorry but I seriously do not see any benefits to using passkeys.

I use 24 character passwords in Bitwarden with 2fa on all accounts, how is a passkey better than that?

With a password manager I'd argue its better but supports still not all there yet. I am waiting on bitwarden right now to support mull, basically its blacklisted, but it was added in the last 2 weeks so now its a waiting game.

Passkeys aren't a full replacement in my opinion, which is what DHH gets wrong. It's a secure, user-friendly alternative to password+MFA. If the device doesn't have a passkey set up you revert to password+MFA.
