Sure, because the complexity of your password and the amount of times you get before you're locked out historically don't effect each other lol.

In fact, let's do this right now: I've just thought of a random english word and written it down. I'll give you 20 guesses. Guess it right and I'll agree with you.
"Hey guys, I'm going to prove that an OS that claims that you don't have to worry about security anymore is actually secure by asking a total stranger to guess my password"
lol.
> I will absolutely say that a distro making that claim should not worry about the difference between 3 and 10 password attempts on sudo (i.e. when you're already logged in).
If you'd like to point out that it's really important to require a high-entropy password for the lockscreen or disk encryption, then I'll agree, but that isn't the argument we're in right now.
