It's shared standard in the sense that all implementations will be the same, AFAIK passkeys you generate on iOS systems aren't easily used on windows ones, etc. Or they'd require scanning a QR code from a phone which IMO sucks when a password manager has it in the browser already.

Also what security issues with password managers? There's some potential concerns with extension-based over OS based systems, but if your device is compromised where someone can actually access memory then they'd both be equally void to some extent, AFAIK there's nothing seriously concerning security wise on a password manager vs keychain, etc.
