If it was like it was in the linked article it wouldn't be that bad, "Louvre," is harder to guess than "Louvre", specially if the way to check the password is not automated and there is a limit of tries before triggering some alert.

But odds are high that the password was that way to easily tell the intended users of the system what it was, in a not secure way. And that adds another dimension to the insecurity of it.

Not sure if you're joking, but that's a style convention on the article's part.
