That's such a ridiculous logical falacy. You already have to send the form input to submit the form in the first place and you already need server side validation.

I just checked one of my app's register page (which makes > $2M ARR). If you submit a short password it returns an error from the backend that says "Password should be at least 6 characters.". (It uses Supabase). But yeah, that is so unusable it is basically the same as taking 7 hours to download a game onto your Playstation. Great logic!
