How bad is Idea of .Zip as password manager?

Any explanation of Why to not store passwords in plaintext and encrypt folder in zip archive (I guess U cant break pass?) Pls don't be agressive!!

I dont see the "manager" part in your zip archive..
More like a bunch of text files.. and you are doing the job of the manager
- pass has a similar spirit, where passwords are just GPG encrypted files with some CLI glue on top.
  
  You could achieve the same with an encrypted .zip file and a bit of bash, even if it would probably be less ergonomic.
