It's so out of context it's almost untrue.

Bitwarden can't find or change your password, and their admins absolutely can't see them either.

You're talking about the "admin password reset" feature offered to organizations (and which doesn't concern lambdas users at all), which must be explicitly activated and which allows admins not to see our password, but to trigger a password reset with notification to the user.

Once the password has been reset, all you have to do is change it, and nobody else has access to it.
