If utilities gave them any other way, I'm sure they'd be using it.

The three major California utilities have an oAuth 2.0 option (PG&E's is called Share My Data). I wonder if Pelm has considered supporting that.
That is a poor excuse for a clearly bad security practice. That is akin to a mugger saying “if the world gave me another way to make money, I wouldn’t be mugging people”. Some things just shouldn’t be done! This is a hill I’m willing to die (by a thousand downvotes) on!
