If they arent on a USB stick, protected against being copied, they are only a single factor that instill false safety.

Depends on the system. The thing where your password manager is managing your passkeys? That's a single factor unless it's doing something tricky that none of them do. When it's the tpm or a Bluetooth connection to your phone? That's actually two factors, and great.

Passwords are a single factor, and passkeys are an easier-to-use single factor with the benefit of not being susceptible to brute force, dictionary attacks, or guessing.
