Most other password managers have a cloud component so if your local storage breaks or gets lost you don't lose all your passwords.

I do when I can, but there's a learning curve, and the rest of the world is trying to move those users in a very different direction (passkeys and other bullshit).
Password habits for many people are now decades-old, and very difficult to break.
