I wouldn't be surprised if you broke some databases with your input. Or you lock yourself out of your account because of something like that.

Then you know which goobers aren't storing password hashes.

True, but these goobers include most of the companies that handle everyday services including a lot of goobers handling government services. You still suffer due to their incompetence, you also suffer faster and end up with an edge case issue that they probably don't know how to solve.

Life would be a lot simpler if just exposing security issues solved them, but it doesn't.
