This unlock behavior (where only the accounts with the account password entered) unlock has been a part of 1Password 8 from the beginning. We changed it with 1Password 8. The previous unlock behavior allowed for situations where enforced password requirements by a team or business administrator would be ignored if the first account added was a different account. Additionally, because the password used to unlock 1Password 7 was dependent on which 1Password account was added first, it would be possible to have different unlock passwords on different devices.
It's important to note that this isn't quite the same as reusing a password for a regular website login, as not even a hashed form of your password leaves your device ever. Secure Remote Password (SRP): How 1Password Uses It
