Signing into services on smart TVs and media players at home or in hotel rooms, is one of the use cases addressed by passkeys. You should start seeing it rolled out in these
types environments in late 2023.

Yes.
Any password with enough entropy to be useful is pretty much impossible to
type on some screen keyboard using the arrow pad on a remote.
Plus what PHB said about turning ones password over to unknown device.
This is a place where TIGRESS might be able to do some work, where the TV
creates a mailbox, displays the mailbox location as a QR code, and you scan
from the phone with a *wallet* app.
This is done today with some youtube players on TVs already.
That is thinking about functionality. I want the seamless experience from booking through to checkin through to checkout.
