 Excuse my ignorance. But where is the site storing the nsec? 
 It is stored in your browser  
 "No more pasting of your private key into every Nostr app!" - except this one.

I suspect web2 grew a whole generation of people who take one look at their house-key and immediately go deposit in a bank. 
 And where do you store your nsec? 
 I posted it on a public relay like 9 months ago, it's probably still there somewhere in case I lose it.

Where do you keep yours?
 
 This app is non-custodial, comparison with a bank is not accurate. 
 Yes, try it from nostrapp.link, turn off extension first  
 Server replies with authUrl, keys are created in the aithUrl tab, tab informs the server about the npub, server replies to createAccount 
 Didn't work.

 Turn off your extension, nostr-login lib used here doesn't override it. 
 But it is off. I leave it always off these days. 
 Strange, this is what I see when ext is off and I click Log in in top menu.

 It worked after reloading the page. Maybe it was cached.

Did you announce nsec.app with NIP-89 as a handler for NIP-46 events? 
 I don't see it

nak req -k 31990 -t k=24133 wss://relay.nostr.band | jq 
 Now I did. Don't see it here though https://nostrudel.ninja/#/signin/address/create 
 Any obvious complaints in console on page load or when you click Log in?
