I have several e-mail addresses, that I use in combination with several passwords across services. While there's some consistency in which pw I use where, it's not definite. This leads to situations where I have to soft-bruteforce my way through the different combinations of user:pw that are possible. Services that deny me (worse yet, permanently) after a few failed attempts are the bane of my existence. I've since moved to a password manager, but before they were commonplace this was the only somewhat convenient way to give yourself some protection against password leaks.
