OTOH passphrases are so rarely used that other than a handful of common examples that would already be in a word list such as CorrectHorseBatteryStaple, it would be rather unlikely for anyone to bother even trying unless they are specifically trying to crack a specific password.

So maybe don't use a plain four word english passphrase as the admin login, but if your facebook password is ZuckerbergSucksFlaccidCock, 'tis probably fine.

ZuckerbergSucksFlaccidCock
