> What are the odds that someone with a passcode 1234 is 1/ already signed into Google on their phone

...very high? I don't understand how this is unlikely, pretty much every phone owner with a google account is signed into that account on their phone.



The point is that the odds are very high, i.e. if you've stolen their phone and know the PIN, you're very likely already in their account, passkey or no passkey.


Exactly. So they already have access to your email, passwords, and text messages regardless of the passkey
