You don't have to meet the requirements of "a mix of letters, numbers, and special characters." e.g. a 15-character password without complexity could be all lowercase letters.

Yes, and the z/OS USS is what I call aggressively POSIX-compliant. Its mission in life is to hurt you with strict adherence to the spec, not ever help you! If there's any optional part of POSIX, it's not in there. You only
