Do I really have to delete the primary vault in iOS after upgrading to 1Password 8???
This is what we are told to do on the support pages, but it feels alarming and there is precious little written about it on those support pages. I am sure that it is due to the new database architect...

Did you go through the import process on another device? It would seem you likely did so on a desktop. If so, then yes you'll need to remove the vault on the iOS device. The vault is just what you describe a redundant left over from before your membership. The membership does not even know that vault exists and it cannot make use of it for that very reason. Being someone who is also very conscious when it comes to removal of vault. I would use my steps below. They helped me when I needed to take that step.
Check to make sure all of your data is available on https://my.1password.com and ensure you have a copy of your Emergency Kit.
If needed, add your account to the device. * It may already be present. How to add your 1Password account to the apps
If needed copy any items from your Primary vault to your membership vault (Personal/Private) that are not already present. * Please be sure you have the most up-to-date information in your Personal vault. * You may need to do this on each device.
- If the Primary is on multiple devices and was NOT syncing, you'll likely need to repeat these steps on each device to ensure no data loss.
