> I've noticed some of these details, like that the passwords are comprised of little "fake words" and are dominated by lowercase letters, but I hadn't noticed all of them. It's a bunch of clever little touches, all in the aim of making strong passwords that are _convenient_ in odd situations (like typing them with a game controller).

John Gruber (Daring Fireball) on Mondello

The convenience of passwords on odd devices with odd keyboards is to not need passwords at all or to handoff to nearby devices to use a Password Manager like 1Password.
