>irresponsible users (or "morons" as you put it)

Me?! God is my witness, I do not. Rather, it is creators of that "checklist", who suggest that your users are idiots, who should be punished even for being unable to remember their password. IMHO, the really bad thing about the list is the fact that technically legit (I am not a webdev though) points are casually mixed with statements implying derogatory stance towards target users. I do not want you to control the ways I manage my information, that's the point of my rant.

After all, it is not a big deal if some crappy SV startups whose ultimate fate is to die silently after an year or two anyways, will adopt the practice. Problem arises when thing would go in the wild, bringing only headache and distraction to those who is able to control their information flow.
