This is a regression introduced here: [FEATURE: Allow users to confirm session with passkeys (#24337) · discourse/discourse@c6ead3f · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/c6ead3f5c4de128592748d73acdb8c525730bc5b)

I think the code needs to be moved in the `try{}` below; otherwise, the error will use the UI instead of the console.
