Yes - that is what is common across all the platforms.

I never quite got a straight answer on the origins of the 'sys' account - I think it may have been originally intended but never used? Or maybe it's always been wrong.

I should change the define to be TLMI_SMP_PWD instead actually for clarity. I'll fix that.
