Mar 9, 2022 at 16:08 comment added nohillside As written the answer basically says that "Apple prohibits empty passwords because these would prevent them from selling more iCloud services". If this really is your claim here, please provide a link or similar which shows that this indeed is a specific decision made by Apple. Without this, it rather seems as if you have an axe to grind with Apple here.

Services made Apple $68B in revenue last year of which iCloud is an important sticky part. This is a very strong motivation and should be assumed relevant unless there's strong contradictory evidence.
