In the first case most password managers I’m aware of let you log in online. So I’d just log in and use my hardware token on my keyring for 2FA.

you can read your passwords in a password manager, memorize a couple of them for the risks you think you have
what I typically would do in both of those scenarios is a password reset. I would know my email password and do a password reset of everything else and get that in my email.
privilege escalate on yourself.
realistically, I’ve been at Apple Stores multiple times where I needed to login manually to my icloud account while my phone was being RMA’d. nothing to remind you there.

I think it is important to have a few passwords that have memorized. The most important one for me is Google, cause then can reset passwords with Gmail. I don't store them in password manager.
What if I don't have access to the password manager at some point but I do need to log into some website? I.e. visiting friends house, forgot my phone at home but I need to log in my banking app to do a transfer? Or visiting a foreign country, someone steals my papers and my phone and I need to login to mail at a public cafe to let my family know I am well.
