There's an ascending signature counter that's intended to prevent cloned devices (replay attacks are prevented seperately with server generated challenge). One way around it is clone (backup key) having very high initial signature counter set, so first use invalidates original (on loss). But yeah it's a UX problem that hopefully will find a better/non-hacky solution than "register multiple keys for each site". |

This seems like a huge blocker for adoption. I currently run into this issue with FIDO for 2fa - I store my backup key offsite, which means enrolling the second device requires me to make a special trip to retrieve the device. My current approach is to retrieve the backup token every few months and add it to all of the new services I have enrolled in, but I don't have a good system for remembering all of these services, so I inevitably forget one (despite only using the key on a few services)...
