Thank you for the clarification. I've filed a feature request on your behalf to have our product team look into expanding auto-lock options to require biometric unlock on each fill/save action.
With respect to reproducing the timeout issue: the way forward would be for 1Password to be specific about what system API they are using for this check. But it's always going to be a cat and mouse game: the OS may change how the API works, and the programs I am running may change. 1Password can't control this. It could control a timeout based on its own activity.
1Password for Mac depends on macOS to tell it when the system is idle, are you running into an issue where your Mac is idle but the auto-lock feature isn't triggered? Are there other apps on your Mac that are preventing macOS from going idle?
