I've made throwaway programs that communicate with local servers I create as a way to pass the time and even then I make sure to hash passwords at the very least. There's zero excuse to store passwords in plain text. None. Even a boomer should know better because hashing has been standard practice for decades.
All instances of plain text passwords should be considered sabotage until proven otherwise.

That's a good point. They should look into their contractors or whoever actually did the work.
