You're assuming that using 1password implies you're not re-using passwords, or using easily guessable ones. Is this assumption safe to make?

Not entirely. But 1Password does clearly flag weak passwords and reused passwords (i.e. used for two or more items in 1Password) with a message that's not dismissible.

In general, no, but for 1Password users sophisticated enough to store TOTP creds in it, I'm guessing: almost always yes.
