>> from a single leaked unhashed / unsalted password
These days it’s becoming more common to have been compromised from multiple sources. And unfortunately storing passwords securely seems to still be too hard for a lot of companies. The more examples of your pattern an attacker has, the easier to work out your pattern.
With the frequency of new breach announcements I feel like you’re going to be fighting a losing battle. For now the best and safest solution is unique truly random passwords per site.
