What about authentication methods when you don't have a password? I know phones are usually secured with PINs/Face ID/thumb presses, but what about laptops? My macOS has a thumb reader but not all computers do. So you end up falling back to a good old password... Because authenticating the device is not enough, anybody can grab the device while it's open. The user needs to tell the device who they are. Doesn't that end up competing with LastPass, 1Password, BitWarden...?
I'm a bit confused as to where you're going with this, but you definitely seemed to have given it a lot of thought :) I also thought, to make all this content a bit more digestable, maybe some simple draw.io diagrams could help (you too) to read them?
Best wishes!
