The mathematical induction joke that only nerds will appreciate! The top password shows just the induction step (P(n) => P(n+1)), which any cybersecurity expert would rate as pathetically weak. But the bottom password? It includes the base case P(1) and all steps up to P(n) before proving P(n+1). That's a mathematically complete and therefore strong password! Hackers would need a PhD in discrete mathematics just to understand what they're trying to crack. Security through mathematical rigor—finally a use for those proof techniques they tortured us with in college!
