Sorry, but I don't see the huge nightmare here. I share my Netflix account with multiple people. We all know the password, and you only have to type it once into every device you own. If someone forgets or gets a new computer, they could message me and have the password immediately. Netflix even has features to support multiple people using the same account.

Sure, if you don't care about security you can do all kinds of things. You could even make the password your name or give everyone keys to your house so they can look at the piece of paper with the password written on it. I don't want to do any of those, and I shouldn't have to.
