Has it caused you any problems? Or do you flinch at times, finding yourself w/o 1P and needing to login? Phone, Tablet, etc "apps" don't work with 1P .. you have to use cut/paste. In fact, neither Chrome or Safari are allowed plugins, making 1P treat web logins like app logins. One of the best uses 1P provides me is recalling how many sites I have logins with! I found the number alarmingly huge, well over 200. Most are forums and stores, but also include banks etc.
