The actual answer will always be convenience. It’s just too easy to be able to smack my thumb on the fingerprint sensor to login to just about anything.

I understand your point on security, but for the masses, it needs to be as frictionless as possible.

And getting someone to use BW over nothing is a massive improvement even if it’s not perfect.

This is incredibly true. The ease of use I will admit got me to use other password managers in the past before I rethought my approach maybe 7 years ago. And any manager is better than the spreadsheet users will implement if we dont give them tools.
