Much appreciated for the early review, and @dickhardt and I both appreciate the early guidance from the TAG with incomplete information. 

We acknowledge that this isn't a trivial trade-off, and are grateful that this review uncovered/pushed on some of the big open questions (e.g. the three party model vs the two party model), their trade-offs (e.g. developer ergonomics vs privacy) and some second order / unintended consequences (e.g. its relationship to passkeys) that we should dig through.

We'll follow your guidance and take the protocol/backend to the IETF (and the html/frontend somewhere in the W3C and/or possibly to the WHATWG), which we'll report back on this thread as it goes along.
