almost all online services would be "vulnerable" in this way - take almost any login system. an RCE on a system hosting a login page would obviously be vulnerable to account takeover

One of the things Bitwarden's design is MEANT to offer is "zero knowledge" meaning that it is an AES-256 encrypted database "blob", with PBKDF2 derived master password.
So "compromised" server absolutely IS something the DESIGN should protect against. If compromising Bitwarden's servers lets them extract what they say they can extract, then the whole "zero knowledge" assurance is dead in the water.
Plus, Bitwarden themselves don't even need to be compromised, we could have a DNS redirect into a server the bad-guys (inc. national-state) control. Then leverage that into complete compromise of your database.
Second: The provider can get the passwords with a simple server change.
