One problem I can see is that although you can't unlock 1password without biometric auth or the master password, that's not always going to be strictly necessary. Try this...

  1. Fail biometric auth and unlock your iPhone with pin
  2. Try to open 1password, fail biometric auth, it asks for master password... great... but...
  3. Load Safari, go to a website which you have stored in 1password... there's your login and password available! The same is not true on macOS.
