I so wish Apple had not removed the older Sierra installer from the Mac AppStore... I need to update some machines but High Sierra does not seem ready for reliable use yet.
If you haven't updated yet, why would you need the Sierra installer? Nobody managing multiple machines would use a 1.0 anyway.
"Erase the affected volume" is really the best solution they could come up with?

I have a MacBook Pro, and the keys no longer work reliably. I also barely get 2 hours of battery life.
High Sierra keeps restarting by itself.
They removed the jack, and all ports from laptops.
They placed the charger for their wireless mouse under the mouse so you can't use it while charging, and the list goes on and on--particularly with software.
It's just not premium stuff anymore.
I've already switched to Android, and I am not buying another computer from them.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
You need to fetch the value to use as hint from the input somewhere. Doing a typo of writing passwordInput instead of passwordHintInput is not that unlikely, even though it is unfortunate.
Unless you visually connect the fields like the NeXT Interface Builder does.

Changing the password on an affected volume clears the hint but doesn’t affect the underlying encryption keys that protect the data.”
They go on to advise users to do a backup, format, restore cycle.
I guess they are that paranoid because the old password may have been leaked, and, with it, the attacker may have recovered the encryption key for the volume. Or is something else going on?
They also advise (rightfully so): ”If your disk password for any affected encrypted APFS volume is the same as the password that you use for a macOS user account or an internet service, you should change the password of the user account or internet service”
