SCO Unix password scheme sucks!

Why does this system insist that it knows better than I
do what passwords should be used on *MY* machine?
This is most annoying. I have an account that I want to
set the password for to the single letter 'a'.
The stupid thing is not even consistent! It will let me
easily create an account with no password, which is a much
bigger security problem than what I want to do!
Am I going to have to resort to editing the encrypted password
myself?
