There are people who purposely forget their passwords, so they use the "forgot my password" link every time they need to login.

Hard to hack them.

Yeah some sites also dont have passwords, they just send a login link to your email every time.

I prefer passwords so I don't have to go to my email to log in, but I understand it's easier for some people to do it that way. Your email address becomes your identity then.
