Which, while I can't speak to your specific employer, tons are moving to support passkeys. Largely because forcing these apps suck and SMS sucks.

No, that's not the way it went. I joined the conversation, such as it is, to respond to the guy who said "SMS is an ugly user experience" to say no, it's fine.
I haven't shifted any goalposts: I've basically just reiterated to you that I think it's fine and better than the alternatives. Not a word about passkeys from me.
It's not fine that SMS messages get delays. It's not fine that it requires a cell phone plan. It's not fine that it requires you to have cell service. Its not fine because it's insecure.
So many times I've had coworkers and clients frustrated they are pushed to letting their employer force SMS 2FA on their personal numbers. When they could just use passkeys these days baked into their work machines and not have those problems.
Then you decided, for some unknown reason, to jump in and... do something, but I'm not sure what. Seems like you're trying to convince me that my own view of my own experience is wrong somehow but — and one might think this would be obvious, but apparently not to you — that's not gonna work.
