Comment (by dd32):

 Similar to #41522 I somewhat consider this to be correct as-is, as the two
 functions are for different purposes, wp_set_password() is intended on
 being for the sync FROM another system to wp, not to sync it TO that
 system.

 The naming, docs, and hooks could definately use some work though to make
 things more comparible between the two.
