Safari Extension Authentication

Unfortunately you can’t go back to the previous method, because they disabled it. Why did they disable it? No one has given an answer that isn’t convoluted and confusing. Something about not wanting to support two different functionalities because that’s too hard/expensive, and something about the browser extension being so much better that they just tossed the share sheet method (that’s the previous method). What I don’t understand is, when was that decision made inside the company, and didn’t at least one person speak up and say “Hey, if you do that you’re killing the app for like thousands (they don’t know the actual number of people with local accounts, so it could be tens or hundreds of thousands for all I know) of costumers who’ve forked over hundreds of dollars in license purchases? Or why didn’t at least one person say hey, the extension method requires users to input a (newly lengthened) 10 character password periodically into the tiny iPhone keyboard which has to be typed perfectly because you can’t autocorrect a password, and the old share sheet method only used biometrics - I wonder if anyone is going to dislike this? And also, if my 1Password app always uses biometrics, why on earth does it make sense to have to manually type in the password to the “mini 1Password” extension periodically? Also, why do they keep closing discussions here about the iOS15 local account thing?
