apparently you've never heard of people guessing passwords...

All the restrictions banks give don't make the password less guessable. Lots of people can still use their birth year, or their postal code. Banks are mainly a PITA, not really "securer".
There's a difference between non-complex and guessable. You don't need to have a 16+ character password to make it non guessable. My comment was referring to brute forcing rather than guessing...
