I admit Bitwarden is probably the most advanced, but the alternatives I named above (Psono, Passbolt, Passwork) seem not that far behind and some of your research seems a bit superficial.

> Bitwarden has an Android app (two of those didn't)

That's just wrong. All three of the alternatives I mentioned have an Android app. I haven't used any of them, though.

> has been security audited (I didn't see anything for those other ones)

A quick search turns up at least some auditing activity:

Passbolt: https://www.passbolt.com/incidents

Psono: https://doc.psono.com/admin/asvs/overview.html (self-audit)

Looking more closely at Passwork, they claim to have open/auditable source code, but I can't find any public code. So they are out of the game anyway.

> Bitwarden has a much better pricing structure around non business users. It has a free tier and plans for families/non business users, as well as business use. Those others had nothing comparable that I could see except for a limited free tier.

Psono's full-featured enterprise version is free for anyone with up to 10 users. I don't see any such generous offer at Bitwarden or elsewhere.

And both, Psono and Passbolt offer unlimited business tiers for only 3€ per user per month which seems to be in the range of what Bitwarden costs. I don't really see your argument for the pricing.
