...if the person so happened to be brutefocing with "all lowercase and space" the difference is nil

more likely tho they're gonna have to try at least "all lowercase and a bunch of 'special' chars"

but more likely than *that* they'd have to try lower+upper+number+special which is much much larger

this is if bruteforcing tho, really a lot of the ways people try to comply with "must have xyz"...
