For the last two, that behavior is to be expected (after all, you've set
the two login vectors to require passwords), but the error message seems
odd now. Perhaps we tweak it to be:
"initdb: error: must specify a password for the superuser when requiring
passwords for both local and host authentication."
That message is a bit long. Maybe just
must specify a password for the superuser to enable password authentication
without reference to the specific method. I think the idea is clear there.
