User inconvenience is not at all the same thing as security.
No, but the two tend to be correlated.
Example, MFA authentication is a security feature, but inconvenient as shit with low or no lifetime. Same complaints about short lived sessions on app sites. Especially when every login requires MFA....
MFA can be a variety of different things. In the case of passkeys, a prompt comes up on the screen, you click it, and that's it. It's both secure and convenient. That's why it's great.
