I can't login to a website from my desktop any more because I enabled passkeys, and my desktop doesn't have bluetooth to talk to my phone. Nor does anyone say what version of bluetooth is required

Why would you use a passkey manager that required a phone and BT? that's nuts.. 1password and Safari both handle syncing passkeys between all your devices - no device swapping needed.

It's the default.

Isn't putting your private keys on the internet the thing we're trying to avoid?
