6 months to 1 year is good but the advise to change password is not necessary because if you set up a very strong password and your devices are protected well, why do you have to change it with another one?

I agree, but it's become part of (weird/bad) security practice on work field. On worse part, the system will force you to change password regularly.
yes, it is a strange security requirement. I don't know what is reason of such mandatory requirement behind the scenes. Some platforms have such requirements. Some ewallets have the requirement too. PIN with 6 figures and force users to change PIN each 6 months. What the bad requirement.

In general, if there is no requirement, setup a very strong password, and stay using it. Don't back up that password on cloud or any other services. Keep it offline.
