You get one additional feature that others don't get, and that's Google and likely all sorts of government agencies being able to record all your passwords. Great feature.

I don't kid myself... I'm not that important... no one is looking through the crap I have on my Google Drive.

This is a really simple and definitely a better solution than not using any password manager at all (if we leave out possible government/Google issues, which I personally would definitely not leave out).
But yeah, as already mentioned - it breaks the privacy and security principles. I would recommend you try anything else, which is actually meant for storing passwords/secrets and when switching, then change all your passwords :)

I do something similar except the passwords in my gdoc are secured with https://securemypw.appspot.com/ (disclaimer: I wrote this 5 years ago so I could share passwords with my wife).
*edit... well except the autofill, but that's why there is good old copy and paste :)
