@christiaanbrand Good catch - the entire last paragraph ("If the promise will return _False_, the client SHOULD wait a fixed period of time [...]") in [ยง5.1.7][spec] seems unnecessary to me. The method checks for the presence of an _authenticator_, not a _credential_, so it should be fine to always return immediately. The text also motivates itself with not leaking information when asked to create a credential, which this method doesn't do.
