Re: [webauthn] Enforce backup eligibility during assertion (#1791)

> Yes, but there is no guidance (normative or informative) on what RPs should do if they encounter the forbidden cases (`BE=1 => 0` or `BE=0, BS=1`).

I do agree that an official decision should be made. Two _insanely popular_ WebAuthn libraries currently reject registration and authentication based on the fact that `be:0, bs:1` is "not allowed" because it is the opinion of the authors (read: me 😂) that this reflects an authenticator that is acting up, and that it is a problem that should be fixed at the authenticator level so that it becomes compliant with the spec.
