This article is slightly inconsistent.
All those arguments for why a password's strength doesn't matter because the attackers gets the exact one have one important conclusion: Don't reuse your password.
And then there are a bunch of arguments that the strength mostly doesn't matter but the password shouldn't be too weak.
So we end up with having to remember lot's of non-trivial passwords and now the conclusion should be to use a password manager and certainly not that your password "mostly doesn't matter".
What sadly mostly still doesn't matter is MFA because it is a site-specific pain to set up and use.
