That’s why you don’t create a passkey for the service that manages your credentials.

Use a pair of yubikeys.

BTW, all major email providers have a flow to allow you to recover access to your account.

When you enable passkeys it doesn’t suddenly deactivate every other way of logging in.

That’s definitely not the position most passkey proponents take.
