WebAuthn can do full blown Usernameless, and it's very easy with devices like a modern iPhone or high-end Android.

I have no idea why this wasn't immediately huge. You see the login button, you tap it, your existing fingerprint reader or whatever verifies you are still you, whoever that is, and you're logged in, done. Much more secure than people's crappy passwords, yet much easier to use even than the crappy passwords.
