Feature description

Whilst passkeys are great, and they're significantly better than username/password, they're not implicitly multi-factor.

Adding a second factor, such as conventional TOTP, adds an additional level of protection for those using passkeys.

Pitch

Many vendors, such as Apple, implement Passkeys in a way which requires MFA (on device and biometrics), it's not always the case (for example, using a Yubikey).

Adding a second factor (opt-in, of course) adds an additional level of security, regardless of whether the Passkey itself is protected with MFA.
