Making a new passkey when you switch services, is exactly like making a new password when you switch services.
Where in the world are we talking about Google managing your passkeys. The article is about using passkeys for Gmail. You would manage your passkeys exactly like you would with any password, with a password manager like 1pass, bitwarden, etc. Google doesn’t manage or control any part of that.
