Just sounded cooler , and I was on the team that worked on Passkeys at Microsoft, so I wanted to poke them a bit (in a friendly way).

To me, “hijacking” a passkey sounds like credential disclosure, which is quite worrying for a core team member to talk about. I know what you mean, but it’s probably the wrong term to be using if we want to emphasize that passkeys cannot be stolen.
