Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that password managers can generate random passwords for users?

Yes. MDN's reference documentation states that password managers generate strong passwords for users, and a peer-reviewed study notes password managers' security advantage of generating strong, random passwords. Other sources confirm random password generation exists but do not specifically attribute it to password managers.
