Comment (by drelkata):

 To clarify the WooCommerce bit a bit more: WooCommerce only shows ''Hint:
 The password should be **at least twelve characters long**.'' when you've
 entered **less than 9 chars**; inputting 9 or more chars would cause the
 hint to disappear and lead to confusion. Although this can be attributed
 as a WooCommerce issue, it only contributed more to my initial belief that
 the hint wording is misleading.
