I kind of want to point out the discrepancy in saying "I get syncing without sharing my data with anyone by sending my password database to Apple". If your argument is that the database is encrypted, how is Bitwarden different?
What this highlights in my humble opinion is that many users seek security signals and are less concerned with the actual security implementation. In the password management space, the signals are "local vault", and "not VC backed", at least on HN. It's quite odd since you'd think people would be more concerned with the application architecture, key derivation, key transport backup and recovery, etc. But it seems security is more synonymous with "company doesn't store my vault on their servers" than it is with "company helps me securely encrypt my passwords".
