That doesn’t really answer the question though, you just assumed that attackers would instantly figure out your system with a sample size of 1. How do they do that? Not saying that they definitely can’t, but I want to see logical arguments before I believe it.

That’s not the punt they’re making at all.

The point of that when a website password breeds to be changed, then it won’t conform to the system anymore. Now you need to make a new system, or remember this particular exception.

  Yes exactly. Now the account locks you out after n tries, so yould also encounter problems down the road.

It’s not about being safe. It’s about losing track of your ability to track your unique passwords once one site nullifies it’s password.
