Another issue is the hash used: SHA-256 is a hash which can be calculated extremely quickly on dedicated hardware (which has been incentivised heavily by bitcoin mining). So the gap between the speed at which an attacker can run the hashes vs the intended user is larger than with other hashes, like argon2, which is specifically designed to be resistant to acceleration by dedicated hardware.
