Additional details

Please update the impact of setting password to NULL. Currently the doc says "To prevent a role from using password authentication and to mandate certificate-based client authentication, set the password as NULL."

However according slack thread "setting password to NULL will prevent password auth from working. if the customer does not create any client certs for that user, then cert authentication will not be possible either, so they'd have to use SSO"
