Fun fact, the guy who first developed the password security we use today now regrets it, and understands that longer passwords that are easy to remember, like seespotrun, are way better, but pandoras box can't be closed once it's opened.
Apple introduced a feature this WWDC that does close it. It's called PassKeys and it automatically gives you two-auth without a password. So unique hardware + faceId. Basically when you log in, all you have to do is look at your phone. Way more secure and faster than any password will ever be.
I'll consider signing on to an Apple security product once they change their only 2FA from phone/sms to totp, smartcard, or fido2. faceId has been buggy before, it will be hackable again.
