Passkeys now support external providers
> who the heck would carry a USB key with them??
Why not? I do this. It's no different from any other physical key like a door key, and I keep it on the same keychain too...

I don't see how this conflicts with physical tokens like Yubikeys? The tokens help you "remember" the key like how a physical door key helps you "remember" the bitting (which is the real authentication info).
Just like passkeys, U2F can also be done using a virtual U2F device if you so choose (https://github.com/bulwarkid/virtual-fido). And presumably you could create an off-device portable token to store passkeys...
The real problem at the end of the day is just consistent adoption. There's still a ton of 2FA services that don't accept U2F and only use SMS or email codes...
