Update the Password Reset Error Message

I'm trying to track down where/how to change the Password Reset Error Message. I already checked the Sys UI Messages, Installation Exits, and the Password Policy but can't seem to find where this Error Message is coming from.

What I did figure out, is its coming from the $pwd_error_message UI Macro but seems the message is on the Server Side aka being built from somewhere else and not the UI Macro. Anyone know how to change that error message text? I did think of hardcoding the text in the UI Macro but might prove to not a viable choice.

Pretty sure it's dyanmically updated based on the password policy. Example: in the password policy, change the minimum password length requirement, and you should see the UI message update

Is it possible to change the text to something like below:

"Your new password must contain a minimum of eight (8) characters, a maximum of forty (40) characters, at least one (1) lowercase letter, at least one (1) uppercase letter, at least one (1) number, and at least one (1) special character. Your password cannot be the same as or a variation of your user ID. It must also be different from your prior passwords."

 

Or is this not doable?

I'm not sure to be honest and SN documentation is pretty weak on this. I would open a case and support would be able to tell you for sure.
