I would rather lose my passwords than have my password database be accessed by someone else. Most websites have a “forgot password” function, and for passwords that don’t have that (e.g. to decrypt my hard drive or log into my computer) I’ve memorised the passphrase and always type it manually anyway. And for passwords where neither applies, it’s probably not a huge loss anyway if I’ve not prepared for the possibility of losing my password db for that particular password.
Chances of losing the data is higher with selfhosting too. Unless you’re doing some sort of multizone replication, or course.

I use syncthing so there’s a copy of my password database on each of my devices.
Borg backup to borgbase is not very expensive and borg will encrypt the data plus the vault is also encrypted
As long as you’re still signed into BW from any of your devices, you can always export the vault from there.
(But yes, actual backups are always a plus)
