Frightening that a bank cares less about security than letting people in.
On the other hand, they are probably far more alert to detecting and stopping bruteforcing attempts.
It's a similar situation with certain 4-digit PINs for smartcards; that may seem trivial to bruteforce, but you only get 3-5 tries before the system considers you to be attacking it and permanently locks you out even if you try to enter the correct one afterwards.
