>What does it matter if they use a password manager or remember and type their passwords manually
The main difference is amount of information attacker will get.
With passmanager, he will get everything instantly once you type master. With manual typing, he will have to wait until you tell him about every single account, one at a time, so it's a bigger risk for him to get caught.
And password managers, in general, give average Joe false sense of security. So he starts storing everything in them. Bank accounts, credit cards, you name it. And once he gets hacked, amount of damage he receive will be much greater.
