Worth noting that Microsoft lets you set up single-machine passwords (they call it a PIN) that you can use to access a user account on a machine without having the password for the associated MS account. That way you can have a secure (and changeable) MS account, but the single-machine PIN can be something you don't need to copy/paste.
So the scenario is: somebody breaks into the house, sits down at the gaming PC, and is able to poke around the local network because the gaming PC has no login password?
I wouldn't say it's THE scenario, but it's A scenario.
There's a reason IEEE says it's best practice to give IoT devices a strong username and password and to segment them away from the rest of your network, right?
I do not trust corporations, so I generally do not do things like biometrics and stuff.
I don’t completely understand how pins are more secure than my complex password either. That could be ignorance.
