pspacek commented: """ The main problem here is that we are mixing two approaches together, i.e. entropy specification using bits + specification using character classes etc. which used to be means of expressing entropy requirements in a way understandable by ordinary users. If I understand it correctly, the encoding here is just to please password-quality checkers because the real password strength should be provided by the `entropy` parameter. So I propose to use character classes only for encoding but not during generation. That should simplify the code and make it easier to understand.
