I don't know. I come across old AP/routers where I've forgotten the login credentials and find myself hard resetting them with some regularly, one that's above "approximately never" anyway.

I'm presuming the hard reset is to a factory-assigned password.
Is that uniform across all devices, or device-specific?
Practice I've seen for some years now is to have a label on the device with admin/root password, which is presumably neither uniform across devices nor trivially-determinable from device characteristics (e.g., MAC address, sequential serial numbers, etc.).
I'd still consider that practice reasonably tolerable, though you should be keeping better tabs on assets and credentials.
