    - it's meant to support easy-to-remember https://xkcd.com/936/

In practice there are plenty of complaints about it and always have
been.  I don't find the cartoon especially convincing :).

    - last time we got a compromise (2010), the user had the encrypted
      passwords (through SQL injection), but he didn't get root.

I'd forgotten that.  It's a valid point.

I won't push it, just bringing it up.
