That is simply not true. Please, Jeremy, provide just one time someone
offered a reason, other than "user choice". Or because "I don't want
to".

The technical facts are that enforcing strong passwords makes for a
more secure system. It is the single-most thing folks can do to make
their system secure. This is undeniable.

Why shouldn't LFS do something that has such a sound technical
reason, with really nothing that can be said against it, other than
"I don't want to".

The choice is still up to the reader to install the package or not.
