Sites would immediately use it to essentially disable password managers "for security." Sites have done everything they can to block password managers historically, I don't anticipate that changing.

Why would any site do that? Other than in a banks website I haven't encountered that behaviour previously
You're asking the wrong person: Sites shouldn't do that. But they do, often.

Banks are the worst offenders, but it isn't limited to that. Any site that thinks it is "special" and requires "extra security" targets password managers for reasons unknown.
