Comment on Any strategies for guessing a passphrase that I am missing one word of?

  Doesn’t matter. Passwords aren’t stored as plain text in any scenario where it is even remotely important to security. It’s entirely too easy to access otherwise.

  They have absolutely no way to confirm your password us accurate unless it’s accurate.

    They do: since it’s only one word missing, they can easily brute-force it themselves.
