Just in case someone miss this point.

I think it's worth to tell that we simply DO NOT have a clear text
password to use in NTLM world, so that's simply not an option for us,
not a matter of preference.

We only have an hash of a password being used in a challenge response
protocol for authentication.

If that's already known, I apologize, please ignore my email.
Simo.
