Can you @karel please explain why changing the password that ends up making it a passwordless login for guest?

You cannot in 18.04
You can in 16.04...it works, and is fully supported until 2021.
The switch from Unity (16.04) to Gnome (18.04) broke Guest Sessions - several parts of the Gnome stack and AppArmor need to be modified to restore Guest Sessions. It looks to be slow and complex going, and community members with Gnome and/or AppArmor code skills are welcome to join the effort.
Ubuntu developers already know that Guest Sessions is an essential feature for many users. They need skilled help, not reminding.
By coincidence, the Mir team has a fascinating not-ready-for-prime-time kiosk alternative using Snaps and VMs. Skilled community members are welcome to help develop that, too.
