I used to think that one did not need iCloud Keychain on and I did not need it, but I was wrong!
Yes leave it on always in settings, iCloud that way your secret key for 1Password is saved in your iCloud backup and if you use iOS mail app then not only will it save your incoming mail server password, but will also remember the outbound mail server password, otherwise it will just remember the inbound if you ever restore your apple device from a backup.
It keeps various other credentials if enabled.
Also the keychain keeps anything it holds encrypted end to end.
Your right it is best to uncheck (iCloud Passwords keychain) in Safari autofill and select 1Password the default autofill.
Even if you disable (iCloud Passwords keychain) in autofill you can settings, Safari, general,autofill and save Credit Card and it works pretty good.
To be fair I have not tried 1Password Extensions so maybe Credit Card works their good as well.
