Why is this password flagged as weak?

I have a Power Automate script that creates a new user and gives it a random password. Yesterday it failed, and the error is that the password was invalid.

If I try to create a new user with the same password, it's not accpepted and is classed as "weak" with the error

A strong password is required. Strong passwords are 8 to 256characters and must combine at least three of the following: uppercaseletters, lowercase letters, numbers and symbols.

This would be fine, but the password in question is Q@X1Jogz!gf£ZkIc, which I believe meets all the above criteria (this password is not being actively used, so I'm comfortable sharing it here).

Perversely, the new user form is accpeting Password1 as a password, as it definitely does meet those criteria. Why is the other, more complex and random password, being rejected?
