Or just type your password, which causes the lock screen to
go away and the password input to be filled in.  Having to
manually do anything first is more of an annoyance to me.

Having been subjected to some Windows 10 systems, the need
to hit a key to get to the password dialog and then typing
my password has caused me the opposite issue far more often.

Muscle memory is different for everyone though.

As Samuel mentioned, it's worked this way for quite a long
time.  The added text hint is the new(-ish) part.
