I tried to attach a screen recording of 2 attempts made this afternoon, but mp4 filetypes don't seem to be allowed. You can see the attempts [here]

Attempt 1:
- Switch to Safari
- Unlock 1P ahead of time using Apple Watch

- Can't click the 1P prompt until the system prompt is dismissed
- After dismissing the system prompt, the 1P prompt is ignored.

Attempt 2 (immediately following Attempt 1):
- Re-navigate to PayPal, click 'log in'
- 1P prompt appears, but clicking on it results in an error about invalid credentials on the PayPal login screen.

I do not recall how the passkey for PayPal was generated, but it was most likely done from macOS Safari.
