Why not just let them host it?
Pretty uncommon to host company credentials via 3rd party as policy. It wouldn't even be legal under national law for my field of work for example.
Obviously situations are different but the majority of standard businesses will let bitwarden host. In fact, I'd put more trust in bitwarden than than most self hosting teams.
Because we have some contracts that stipulate any data related to the project, including secrets/credentials, must remain on-site, and in some cases, on an air-gapped network. Doesn't make sense to spin up something else to manage those secrets when Bitwarden can do it all and satisfy the requirements of those contracts.
Ahh figured it'd be something like that.
