Agreed. Having and your 2fa and your password vault in one breaks the entire purpose of 2fa. Your vault gets compromised then your 2nd factor is useless. Good security products need to be convenient for mass adoption but there needs to be a balance. And all eggs in one basket is not balanced.

    Passkeys are going to replace passwords and TOTP. And that's just the same as having a vault with both passwords and TOTP. For mass adoption it's fine, people are much more likely to use a reputable password manager like this than they are to use one for just passwords and then something else for TOTP.
