The point is you have to jump through hoops to make cookies secure... Why
not just have a best practice not to store stuff in cookies, and to use
client variables instead, so that people not well versed in security can
build more secure sites then they would otherwise?

You would still use a hashed password that you wouldnt be able to guess,

or like I said before, use a uuid for the userid.

You wouldnt be guessing either one.
