I know the frustration. Fucked up part is that all that crap makes it least secure not more.
Password1!It's surprising how many times I have seen this and variations.
The only one that actually reduces security is the length, as it implies it's stored as plaintext.
The rest do improve complexity for cracking.
Only if you write it down on a piece of paper or save it in your notes. Guaranteeing longer passwords with a variety of different symbols does make the passwords stronger though.
