Not only is it making two-passes for filtering, it also has to do another pass to append "lesser" onto [p] and "greater". And that is for a single recursion so these multiple passes are happening per-recursive call.

One would hope this will cause banks and the like to rethink disabling having the browser's password manager enter your password. On sites where the browser normally automatically fills in my password i'd immediately be suspicious if i got a screen without my credentials already filled in.

My bet though is they won't become so wise and will instead just rely on displaying my private image and phrase on the login screen.
