Dave, thank you for linking to your new blog post. I appreciate your open communication here as well. There are some interesting discussion going on at the moment and I think they have to be solved within the industry to make passkey a success.

NB: You asked why I would need to export my credentials: Well, for me, I want to be able to export all of my access credentials to a clean, app-independent format for a simple reason: Legacy. If something happens to me, my family would have a hard time getting access to all of my services and data - especially if they need to setup or re-install my actual OS/App setup beforehand. So I export my (unencrypted) 1password data to a PIN-secured encrypted USB-stick, securely stored offline.
