That is not a problem that GP brought up. In fact GP claims it's not a big problem.

> The problems of Passkeys are more nuanced than just losing access when a device is lost (which actually doesn't need to happen depending on your setup).

		There's no need to be snippy. Those are the solutions I'm familiar with; there may be others. If Android and Windows don't already solve this problem in similar ways--which they might!--it sounds like an open opportunity for them.
