There’s usually an element of that with cracking passwords. Even if you just triy and pick the right wordlist for a target you’re already engaging in a way. The more you know about them the shorter the wordlist. And if you spend enough time getting to know shit about them you can reduce the wordlist to one entry because they told you the password. But it’s not necessarily a completely different process.

But nobody has discovered a security vulnerability within the system architecture. This is the system operating as designed, abet with the wrong person standing in front of the terminal.

That’s cracking, not hacking. If you’re going to be pedantic, be correct.

However you want to phrase it, they’re very different problems with different solutions.
“Someone picked the lock on my door and got into my house” is meaningfully distinct from “Someone stole my keys”.

It was hacking according to Kevin Mitnick (RIP) so, it’s probably safe to say that your view doesn’t need to be changed.
