Passkeys might provide a decent middle ground here, assuming current UX issues can be improved upon.

I would certainly hope not, depending on the implementation it would be placing critical keys in the hands of an unknown/untrustworthy third party. The alternative is to manage the key infrastructure as a company which brings its own overheads, so the most obvious implementation goes back to WebAuthn.
Apple effectively fixed the UX issues, so we’re just waiting for the future to be evenly distributed.
