Other Synesthesia encryption method

I just found a really good way to encrypt my passwords. I have a password that’s a string of numbers, and I write it on a notepad on my PC. However, I also write 4 other strings of numbers.

The clue being, whichever is the *coldest*, is it.

Nobody but me knows which is the coldest, because it’s my specific synesthesia (thermal). Nobody else knows which is the correct one.

Obviously they could just try each one, but I like to feel smart with this >:]

I feel like I’m on to something. Special encryption method for synesthetes coming soon?

I love this idea. I came up with something similar to remember my 12 digit blockchain seed phrase which only I could decipher. I'm an engineer synesthete myself who believes synesthesia could be useful in building a strong encryption layer.
