I believe it inherits this from Chromium and they probably can't do anything about it. Same thing happens on Android - if you swipe to open or use a pattern you can't see your passwords whereas if you have a PIN or regular password you can. (No idea about if you have a biometric ID like a fingerprint or face scanner.

Are you sure you don't have a password set? Windows may not ask it, if you log in automatically - but usually it is set.
Well, you can likely use little Nirsoft utility Chromepass then.
