Comment (by Otto42):

 The `allow_password_reset` file actually does work as intended, as it is
 intended to provide a way to allow password resets to be disabled on a
 per-user basis. It takes both a truthy value and a user ID number. This is
 so that if you want password resets to be disabled for important accounts
 (example, admins) then you can have them coded to not allow it for those
 accounts specifically.

 If you want to hide the password reset process entirely, then that would
 be a matter of adding a different system of filters or actions. The
 existing filter for `allow_password_reset` would not make sense to
 override this functionality.
