- I don't own the $700 Apple smartwach, since I had an Android phone at the time and it has terrible Android integration - I already owned a mechanical keyboard and was unwilling to downgrade to Apple. - I don't want to use my password (?), since passwordless is kind of the whole point of biometrics.

I forgot to mention that macOS didn't recognize the keyboard layout of my USB keyboard, something that Windows has done for the last 15 years automatically. The proposed solution was, I think, editing a text file.
