What password manager for a family with privacy on the brain?

A question asked a thousand times before, but, of course, we're snowflakes.

My wife and I are researching password managers to use together. Assume we're very highly technically capable and quite adept at online security. Yet for some reason this specific use case seems hard to find.

We are looking for a password manager that has the following features (assuming, of course, that the manager in question is already proven to be hardened and such).

- Will allow us to share passwords for the basic shared necessities (utilities, subscriptions, etc.)
- Lynchpin: Will allow shared access for personal accounts in case of emergency, but, will still keep very private accounts secure. So say, in an health issue or death, allow access to some accounts, but not all of them? So, if I die, they can have access to some private accounts like my health insurance or banking, but, say, the Google account is still locked out (neither one of us want the temptation to delve into each other's email accounts in the case of our demise). It seems that both 1Password and Lastpass both have emergency protocols, but those protocols seems to open all accounts. We're hoping for one that lets us keep at least some private, even in an emergency.
- For the rule of threes, also runs on every normal OS on all normal devices.

If the answer is: Use either one and keep your private accounts out of the manager, that's fine. Just hoping there's something I'm not seeing.

Money is an object, but not the object. Assume for assuming sakes that we're willing to pay for the most expensive password manager if it gives us what we want.

(We do not have kids, and that's not something on the immediate horizon.)
