The value is the combination of userid, username, and password, so in threads on other platforms people have hypothesised that the developer tried to play it safe and use a password hash because of the password's presence.

Also I'm not sure the average developer understands the distinction.

I'm an average developer. I'm not sure that I understand exactly. What should I be reading, or what can you tell me?

Thank you!
