When I store my password DB in Dropbox, Dropbox treats it like any other file: it's completely agnostic to the content. But the sync component of an online password manager knows what it's storing, and the storage and access are provided by the same people.
It's true that you still have to trust the software vendor with your data -- that they won't just send themselves your secrets in the clear -- but I think the secrets are safer if the software isn't supposed to send _anything_ to the vendor than if you have to rely on what it does send being properly secured.
