"Your user password for your computer is arbitrarily unacceptable to
the Fedora Project" is not being excellent either.

That change proposal was rejected, so how is it that one of its
proposed changes has managed to make it through to the installer
barely two weeks later?

The substantive discussion on devel@ was centered on the sshd portion,
not changes to the installer enabling password quality enforcement.
That happened on anaconda-devel@ which most Fedora users don't even
monitor let alone participate. The main notice of this change actually
occurring happened for the first time in test@ which arguably most
users also don't monitor.

I was mostly referring to the last time a password change materialized
without conversation, but I accept being 50% inaccurate on this.
