Exactly.

At least half of the time when I'm prompted enter some motherfucking password with special rules, followed by some assbackwards mark of the beast 2FA - its a case where I literally don't give a fuck about security. Like I would be 100% OK with just remove the password and let me log in with just user name.

Some asshole invented new digital security tricks and every fucking faggot on the planet decided they needed to use it on their thing.

Its like if every door on the planet suddenly had an iris scanner and an armed guard standing next to it. Even though this particular door is just the entrance to a random wooden shack.
I think it's the IT people being self important dipsticks. They like to pretend they are defending NSA secrets. It's just a matter of them ticking some boxes on the server config screen. That's why they didn't even bother to put the password requirements on the webpage. To use your anal ogy, the lock you use on your closet door should be up to you, not mandated by someone who's never seen a closet.
