Reality Check - Card-issuing banks and VISA/Mastercard  are NOT the
same thing.

While you are correct that two algorithms can measure the
strength/weakness of a password differently, the financial
responsibility is NOT ultimately with the user, but it rests
currently on the merchant and VISA/Mastercard/etc.

There is a new paradigm shift aimed to change this... but if you
think strong passwords are an "inconvenience" then wait until
3D-Secure becomes more prevalent.
