hardly.
here, for any given single bare-metal install, between cloud & local VMs, there are
typically *many*/*frequent* VM installs -- of all shapes-n-sizes. it's FAR more
frequent (among devs/ops, even some end-users) than bare-metal installs.
a bog-simple, not-uncommon workflow is: launch VirtualBox, drop in an OS iso, run the UI
install.
for that, a simple password option is more than sufficient.
again, why not simply 'leave it be'.
