Couldn't a password manager generate and remember them for you?

Typically you need your main company password reasonably typeable because you'll be entering it constantly and often in places that don't support password autofill.

Which is also why forcing people to change passwords so often causes more issues than it solves. People just dumb it down until it meets the bare minimum requirements.

Speaking of corporate passwords, a shitty system has the modern windows network support modern passwords, but some important system you need reads the windows network password, but enforces ancient windows password rules, including a length limit of 16 characters
