how many passwords do i have

The/My main purpose of item counts is to easily get an overview of how many items are belonging to (sub)structures. Hiding the count doesn't give an overview at all. Having to scroll thousands of elements within a list to get to the end just to see the count is an awfull UI design. Putting the count into a sort order button is breaking the context of this button as sorting has nothing in common with counts.

How to I use the count or why do I need it? I'm a software engineer and part of my work is creating test accounts, notes and other login related information. Often I'm too busy to sort this information directly during creation into the separate vaults or to tag them. Sometimes vaults or tags are created, split or deleted later on. The directly visible item counts help a lot to get an overview of all items at the same time. This is even more true as all the other programs I use for information management just go the usual way of item counts next to the respective element.
In addition a simple show/hide option in the view menu could be used to avoid clutter.
