Mac user password resets
As others have mentioned, a second account with admin privileges might be your best bet. If you're going to go that route, you may want to implement macoslaps along with that. Macoslaps randomizes the local admin password which comes in handy if you need to give the password to someone. It used to be only for Active Directory joined Macs but now can be used without an active directory (via MDM). Here's the link for more info: This goes on the clients - https://github.com/joshua-d-miller/macOSLAPS

Anyone know if macOSLAPS will work with the new Windows LAPS update Microsoft just announced?
We use MacOSLAPS on our Mac clients to randomize the admin password on those machines: https://github.com/joshua-d-miller/macOSLAPS

The Active Directory team has delivered LAPS natively to Windows 10 & 11, #WindowsServer 2019 & 2022 with this month’s Patch Tuesday!
And that implementation is why when I set this up at $oldJob I set the RemovePassChars key to all ambiguous characters I had run into on the Microsoft product.

First Post - a stupidly specific failure
I believe setting something like macOSLAPS up will also resolve the issue since the automatically created local account would authenticate and update it's password silently.
- is it possible to see what account made changes to the system?

Need advice for securing company laptops
There are a variety of alternatives, such as https://github.com/joshua-d-miller/macOSLAPS
- Create a standard account, no admin account

Migrating away from AD Binding: Challanges with Creating Accounts on Shared Macs
K-12 (or higher ed) and shared labs would be my guess. It's really not that bad though, maybe if you had FV2 enabled, but that wouldn't really make sense on a shared computer. To OP - I have close to 500 Macs on Ventura using NoMAD / Login in labs, with 0 issues. Jamf didn't really 'kill it off' - in fact they're still developing NoMAD 2 - https://github.com/jamf/NoMAD-2 - though I don't really have any experience with that. XCreds changed their licensing model so that the latest version is only available as source code. You'd have to package and I believe notarize it yourself. Doable, but more effort than some people would like to spend. You basically buy the precompiled version with a license now. If you buy enough licenses you get better support. XCreds is absolutely dirt cheap compared to Jamf Connect. I'm trying to go the XCreds route myself. NoMAD still *works* but there's no support and it could break anytime. You can't beat free, and it's been great for us for years, saved lots of money. I've been in contact with Tim to get XCreds working with our third-party IdP / SSO (ClassLink).
