My concern isn't that you aren't advertising the feature, it's that your marketing speaks in many cases directly contrary to your real feature-set. Taking an example already quoted elsewhere in this thread:
> 1Password 7 from the Mac App Store will only support our hosted service, as that’s what you’re purchasing with a 1Password membership. If you install from our website, you’ll have to option to use a standalone vault synced via iCloud if you purchase a standalone license, or use our hosted service if you purchase a 1Password membership.
> As it stands, though, how you purchase 1Password is intrinsically tied to where you store your vaults and how you sync them
This was directly in response to a question about the ability to continue using local vaults in 1Password 7, and it doesn't say that local vaults are an advanced feature, it says they will not be supported by people who buy a subscription.
If y'all just didn't mention the local vaults in most of the marketing, and then there was an "Advanced users only" section that said "however you pay us, you'll be able to keep using local vaults just like always", you'd solve a whole broad spectrum of the concerns you're seeing on this page.
