  1P also does things like universal autofill (on Mac, at least) which is super convenient when you're running multiple browsers and don't like installing extensions. The native 1P clients can do anything the web client can do, while Bitwarden requires you to use the web vault if you need to import/export or do some other specific things (can't remember, but there's some info on that in privacyguides.org).
