In my not-so-humble opinion, their password table comes with the baggage of using specific hardware and assumes a specific hash type with cost.

A better table shows what the raw symmetric bits actually look like. Then it doesn't matter if it's hashed with vanilla MD5 or bcrypt 10. It doesn't matter if it's a single RTX 5090 or a distributed compute cluster.

We know what current brute force rates look like, so the colors in my table follow directly from those results.
