(1) is already true today. There is no way for services to enforce whether a passkey is stored in software or hardware.

(2) I understand you don't like the user experience. But to make a technical clarification: requiring a user action to prove there's a human involved in the login action (e.g. by clicking a button in UI or requiring Touch ID) does not necessarily mean there's another factor involved at all (MFA). What you are describing is more of a "liveness check" than a separate factor/separate credential.

Challenge: Go and try to register a non-blessed passkey type with PayPal and come back and share your experience.

Pretty much my complaint. Passkeys allow for service providers to do dumb things that result in terrible UX. With Password + TOTP, I don't get asked to touch a sensor, enter a PIN, enter an unlock password, etc.

I actually kinda like the enter-a-pin flow, it makes me feel a lot safer about letting someone hold my phone. I just hate the lock-in it adds

Liveness check is fine, but I’ve always seen it as requiring Microsoft Hello or equivalent explicitly, and not whatever check I would prefer to use
