Please don’t use your password manager for TOTP tokens. It is called two factor authentication for a reason.
The reason that 2fa exists is not to protect you if someone gets their hands on your device. It's to protect you if your "static" credentials leaked from a providers' database or you otherwise got phished. Using a password manager to handle mfa is totally reasonable.
Agree. That's another reason to always suggest KeePass!
You can be paranoid and split the two, but most people(99%) will be perfectly fine with KeePass.
