What's interesting is how clever it is. If I used the word "first' and replaced it with "f1rst", it doesn't really slow it down much. Use an acronym like kp.co_fgs1 with a few non-alphanumeric characters and it takes decades to decipher. Of course, if I were a scientist, I wouldn't use that one anyway.
