To avoid confusion when enabling HTTPS on new J4 websites, the "System - WebAuthn Passwordless Login" plugin should be disabled by default, or properly documented in JDOCS as a new feature.
When you switch on HTTPS for your site, your login module has the "Web Authentication" button appear unexpectedly and without administrator expecting to see it (based on J3 experience).

Raised this in relation to testing #30897
I noticed to there's a handful of issues needing addressing too on WebAuthN including a Release Blocker at time of writing.

Webauthn does not require a USB key. There are other options

I know last time I asked why I was shot down, but if this plugin is going
to be enabled by default, then the other two factor authentication plugins
should be enabled by default too.The argument against it last time was that "2fa needs something else set
up on a users phone etc..." well that argument is moot now you have enabled
by default webauthn which requires users to buy a USB key!The other argument agains 2fa being enabled by default was that the
"secret key field" should be confusing being always shown... well Webauthn
being enabled by default will now show (on https) the webauthn button, so
again that argument is moot now too.So once again I propose that 2fa should be enabled by default out of the
box the same way webauthn is.It can always be turned off - like webauthn - if a site admin doesn't want
that feature—
