That conclusion isn't necessary or logical. Judging by the times when
that message appears, software writers feel it is appropriate any time
the client fails to make a connection. In my experience, that most
often happens when the server name is spelled incorrectly. A message
that asks for a password at that point is worse than useless. I
wouldn't mind a password prompt if the password actually is the
problem.
