Picked up a pair of Yubikey 5C NFC keys.

Here's the weird part:

In mobile safari, within Twitter settings, and at least one other website, I can add/associate the yubikey and it is discovered instantly.

However, once I log out and log back in with mobile safari and it prompts me to use the key, I never get the safari/ios popup nfc scanner to use it, and tapping to my phone does nothing.

I have:
1. Verified that it is properly associated by logging in via laptop + USB-C port
2. Tried rebooting iPhone
3. Removed case, though that shouldn't matter since it associated instantly with case on
4. Turned off all safari adblockers/etc

I'm stumped. Why can it associate and find it so instantly when setting it up, but then in login flows it fails to kick off any discovery?

iPhone 8, iOS 14.5, mobile safari
