Yes, it is my post, and I am trying to find a reason why it won’t work. Sadly, without such a solution, it will be impossible to use many Internet services without having an Android/iOS.

Thanks. “Hardware” was a good search term. But it’s more complicated than that: “[…] SHALL rely on the device’s native cryptographic hardware […], when they are available.” Shall means mandatory in the document. But seems someone put a loophole there. So I guess technically it doesn’t “need” it?! But I’d also guess it’ll be available for 99.9% of users.
I suspect we’re going to see more of those hardware backed shenanigans anyway. Several entities are pushing for it. For other, unrelated causes as well. And it fits the purpose because now people don’t really own their devices anymore. Which might already be a thing. I recently tried to back up and copy a phone… And, …well… tough luck. Google is in control. There wasn’t much I could do.
