Parent article: Lucky 13: a look at Debian trixie
I failed to notice that text as well for a long time, until a comment I saw somewhere made me look better the next time I installed Debian (I tend to install Debian quite regularly in VMs for testing stuff in isolation).

Yeah, I think I missed that for ages too, as it came after 2 or 3 previous walls of text which effectively say "make sure you set a strong password for root". At that point, I was mostly thinking "yes, I know, and I get it, set a strong password for root! Can we get to the input box where I type that in now, please?", and missed that the last one says "actually, you can just use an empty password and we'll do something different! (lol)"
