It also means I don't have to trust the providers of the commercial vaults - what if one of their developers goes rogue and releases a dodgy update? Or even is just a bit sloppy.
But you do need to trust yourself not to make mistakes.

That wouldn't work for me - I'd just lose the paper! It would also mean I'd have to go find the paper whenever I needed a password.

I'd also worry about anyone who broke into my house and found it having access to my banking passwords etc.
We have these things called wallets and purses, in their infinite variations, in which we keep small, important or valuable pieces of paper like money, ID cards, credit cards, passports, etc. If you have a reasonably secure place to keep these things then you already have a reasonably secure place to keep a password "vault".
