Great to hear that this got resolved and fair play to Substack for that, but this is inarguably a 1Password bug. If there had been any issue with resolution, they'd be the party I'd be chasing.
Other commenters here have bemoaned the need for these kind of heuristics in dealing with compat with bad HTML form implementations, but there's an easy fix to that: origin-based compat lists. Browsers do this for quirksmode/website compat fixes: they apply heuristics to a specifically tested list of sites. And browsers need to work with a much larger set of webpages than 1Password, so there's no reason 1Password couldn't do the same.
There isn't really any good excuse for applying heuristics blindly by default to a wide range of websites you have not tested those heuristics against. There might be an argument if it increased overall compat with the web IF these weren't highly sensitive pages (1Password saves credit card details!), but in this case there isn't really any excuse. The cost of achieving "blind" compat with smaller sites is too high in this case.
