That's the thing though, I'm talking about combining pop culture words in a way that they are not in any list.
beyonceMadonna is quite a bit different from `b3Y0nm-Ad0nn\ac3`
That's using two words from pop culture, merged together with numerous substitutions. It's easy to generate, easy to remember, and won't be in any lists, and shouldn't be bruteforced (well, I'd increase it to at least 20 from 16) in the time a breach is reported and a reasonable window for changing a password after being notified.
I do agree with everything you've said though.
