Password policy not consistent

I wanted to note that the policy doesn't seem to be standardized, as intended. On 10/16, I installed Fedora using the pxeboot images from:
http://mirror.pnl.gov/fedora/linux/development/23/

During installation, I created a new user account, which would not accept the password that I intended to use. That password is nine characters long, contains numbers and capital letters, was generated randomly by "mkpasswd", does not repeat any letters, and does not resemble any words that I'm aware of.

After installation, that user was able to use "passwd" to set the same password that Anaconda would not accept.
