The keychain and passwords app are separate and keychain still exists

I always operated under the assumption that the passwords app was just a more casual view into the keychain

Maybe that's a bad assumption

They're separate stores. I was under the same assumption until I tried to use `security` to get a saved password. It doesn't work, and as far as I know there is no CLI for the Passwords app's store.
