   Yes, that is true. In my opinion, that is not a replacement for storing 
passwords in a hashed form when using the default feature.
   
   Having the default credential store (`secret manager` is ADDITIONAL 
software/infra you need) storing secrets in an unsecure way is not adhering to 
principles like Security by Design/Default and Defence in Depth. Storing 
secrets you don't need the cleartext for in clear text has been bad practice 
forever and costs (basically) nothing, apart from the initial implementation, 
which is minimal.
