For one thing, I don’t have to deal with every new website’s crappy signup and email confirmation flows, broken password reset flows, login forms that deliberately break password managers, etc. Obviously Web3 has nothing directly to do with these things, but a consistent auth system becoming ubiquitous could be inherently nice.

Your wallet is your identity, and so can directly be tied to web3. It could be implemented in alternate ways as well, but that's one situation that web3 can already handle. (Sort of. Password (private key) resets aren't a thing, yet.
