That is no reason to use one password for everything for all links. Passwords are a link specific thing anyway.

I use different paswords for diffent links...

Longer session password increase security, no argument there. If the increased security is still really needed in Fidonet is another discussion. I lean towards not...

Even more: I say binkds is an overkill.
