Yeah, using a pass phrase makes it much easier to remember on top of being more secure. But users should introduce at least a bit more complexity than that example (all lower case letters isn't great). This1sComplexButMemorable! Is an easy example of how you can just make up a relevant sentence to what you're using, include a range of character types for complexity and to meet requirements, and you're good to go. Plus if you make it relevant to what you're logging into, you're less likely to be tempted to reuse the pass.
