"you don’t have to enter your password" != "you don't need a password"

As I understand it every now and again Apple will prompt you to enter your passcode/password, such as when you restart your device or if you haven't unlocked it in two days. Hardly a signal that passwords are done.

My iPad asks me for my iTunes password pretty much every time I update the apps. I'm assuming this is orthogonal from my having set a PIN to unlock the thing.

I love how certain people try to use complicated words and yet don't know how to spell them.
