IMO, having the token stored in your password manager means going from 2FA to 1FA effectively ;-) if someone gets access to your password manager vault, all accounts will be compromised.

Only if you use the same password manager for both: password and OTP.

It still makes it 1FA. If all you need to get the OTP is know which password managers the user uses, and what is the password for that passowrd manager, OTP goes from being a "something you have" type of authentication factor, to a "something you know" authentication factor, which is the same factor as the password. Multi factor authentication is not about steps, is about what you need to complete the authentication challenge (something you know, something you have, or something you are).
