The other PAKE draft on the agenda explains this motivation better in its
introduction, although the mechanism is different:

https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-guo-pake-pha-tls-01.html#name-introduction

In draft-bmw-tls-pake13-01, the words "such as" are doing a lot of work in
the abstract and introduction. I doubt they are aiming at passwords that a
user types, given all of their other efforts to ditch passwords, but idk.

thanks,
