With password managers to take care of ch00sing c0MPl1c/tEd p455WOrdz for us, and with two-factor authentication (2FA) to reduce the value of stolen or poorly-chosen passwords, you could argue that we no longer need to supplant passwords, because they’re easier than ever to use securely.
Password managers not only happily use passwords like 5G*wjcn@03lWRFq, where humans might end up going for PetsName99, but also associate passwords with specific websites, thus reducing the risk of being phished by putting a real password into a bogus web page.
