Sorry, what do you mean by 12 characters?

[–] dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

All numbers in a passcode means 10 possible values for each position: 0-9. Just the letters in the phrase “second breakfast” include 12 possible values at each position which means mathematically there are more possible solutions.

But the attacker wouldn't know about that. He does not know if the password is just characters, numbers etc...

Where do you get the 12 from? Alphabetical is 26 variations per character, not 12.
