As someone who has come across this scenario a lot through the years I have not been able to use an older password once connected to our domain and have synced. The cached account is nice since if you lose domain trust, just shut off wifi or unplug ethernet and you can get back in which allows you to rejoin. Local account can as well, but getting that password through laps and typing in the ridiculously long password thats set is by far our last resort method.

Is this from the local connection or over RDP? The issue they're trying to point out seems to be that while it'll stop working for local sessions, RDP sessions will continue to accept the old password

I'll have to try on Monday. Sounds like a good test for work hours haha.
