I've confessed to insanity
before<http://twitter.com/aarnott/status/2009287785>.
 But whether or not I'd want to refute this particular accusation would
first require that I know on what grounds the accusation stands.  Does your
anonymous co-designer call my insane because I'd want to disable my
password?  Personally, I trust my OP much more than I trust my own ability
to manage hundreds of secure passwords.  So yes, I'd want to disable my
password.  Short of a password disable feature, I'd change my password to a
cryptographically strong random password so that neither I nor anyone else
could ever log in using it again... thus providing me with as much login
security as my OP affords (which is phishing resistant and more convenient
than remember so many secure passwords).
