@ThoriumBR: It’s ridiculous to assume that everybody who argues against you or downvoted your answer is just inexperienced or stupid, while you have some exclusive insights into IT security. Multiple people have explained exactly what the practical risks are. Instead of addressing this, you just keep repeating that they’re irrelevant, or you point to other risks (as if that nullifies the problem of sharing a password). Have you considered that maybe your current answer really is poor?
@ThoriumBR: Work experience in general IT or IT security can help assess risks (although a decade isn’t all that much), but it doesn’t make you infallible.

@Ja1024 I didn't called anybody stupid, didn't said I have exclusive insight into anything, never said I am infallible, and telling someone is inexperienced isn't being rude. I am inexperienced in a lot of fields too, and I like to learn from people with more experience than me.
on the other hand, working around 25 years on the field, having being invited to and written technical books for IBM (while not working at IBM), being responsible for the security design of one of the largest e-commerce websites on my country, working on the platform upgrade for one of the largest banks in South America and being infrastructure engineer on another bank does give me some experience.
so if IBM and large companies are paying for my insights, and taking my advice on how to care about risks and not lose millions in case I am wrong, maybe I know more than the average...

@security_paranoid When you said "once I understood what you were saying I thought it was a good answer, but I had to read it a few times to understand" that's why the answer needs to be improved. An answer that must be read several times to understand is not a great answer, and needs to be improved. The goal for answers here is that they should be helpful to many other people of different levels of experience.

@ThoriumBR Your answer isn't being downvoted because people think you don't know what you're talking about, it's because they think OTHERS won't know what you're talking about. You could reword your answer to make it clear that you are not encouraging people to share passwords with random strangers.
