Something I didn’t see mentioned by others is that you can use an arbitrarily long passphrase for you master password, easy to remember and very hard to break.

You can’t do that in a lot of places that require a password as each have very different sets of security rules, including not allowing passwords over a certain length or with certain special characters.
