All it would take is for the JS that powers the site to be modified to send your passphrase(s) back to them.
If at some point they wished to go back on their word not to ever look at your passwords.
At that point you'd be safe until the next time you needed to log in to retrieve a password.
Leviticus isn't a moral code for the perfect chrisitan. It's a Judaic rule book. It has little relevance to most christians, who don't live in the kind of environment where eating meat from an animal with cloven hoofs could be poentially life-threatening. Also, a lot of the old covenant was overwritten by bible 2.0, ahem, the new testament.
The problem with this is Microsoft would then sue you for tampering with their software if you tried to patch the bug yourself.
I wouldn't want to be notified of thousands of security issues in windows if there was nothing i could do about it without risking legal action.
