?? You said, correctly, the administrator password can be used as password to go
change users' options. That's not at all true in the reverse; user passwords don't
get you admin privileges.
Think of the admin password like the "root" user password; you can do more with it.
And the site password works for even more things (for admin privs on any list,
for example).
