Per Kim's laws, how I authenticate to my OP is none of the RP's  
business.
That I authenticated in a phishing resistant manner is.

ie. we want the OP to make the statement that it followed certain  
anti-phishing guidelines.

There is no certainty that the OP followed them, but the RP and user  
have recourse against an OP if the OP stated that it did follow the  
anti-phishing guidelines.
