Passwords are poor UI design.

You're telling me that I not only have to remember what letters are in the password, but I have to enter them in the right order?? What were they thinking??

    Well you joke but honestly they actually are.

    You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
    The correct password: Freddie Mercury

    So, if the machine were competently designed, it would also accept freddie mercury, freddiemercury, Mercury Freddie, Freddie Hg, and Queenguy

    But no, it insists I enter the password exactly as written! What bonehead programmed this? I'm lookin' at you, Bill Gates and Steve Wozniak!!
