Not the parent but the problem is that Chrome (sub. Firefox and Safari, these are problems with pretty much all browsers) isn't a password manager, its a password autofiller.

The result is that what should be crucial things like "how do we ensure permanency of the passwords file" are treated as very second rank - profile corruption usually is met with "remove the entire profile", which also ditches the password database. Literally every other password manager has some sort of tool available that makes it very clear where your data is stored and emergency backup options.

Chrome also doesn't like it if the login form doesn't look like most other login forms (and because this is the internet, you're gonna at some point run into weird login forms). It also can behave really funny if the site combines the user registration form with the user login form (which a lot of webshops do) by putting the autofill information in the registration form instead of the login form.

Add to that a very subpar experience in manually filling the right fields and "why not Chrome" should have a very clear answer.

It's a full-featured password manager, accessible via passwords.google.com . Also has great android app integration. I use it on Android, Linux, and Windows. The only thing it's missing is the marketing; I often wonder why they don't market it and crush 1password et al.
