Issue
Its simply not good enough, the current calculation results the minimum entropy value and a deviation that is calculated by finding the entropy of the padding characters. Could be more refined

How to reproduce
spass.generate_passphrase()

How to resolve
Need to figure out what the correct way of calculating the entropy of random words with padding characters dispersed between them.
