I read through the link you shared and the meaning of that password was actually a passphrase and it is known that once you add a passphrase to your recovery seed then it means you cannot recover this wallet on any other wallet: should you recover without a the passphrase you will have an empty wallet because the real wallet with the right balance is with passphrase, this is what I think happen to your friend. If you check that address on any block explorer you will be able to see the balance of that 5$ but it is not showing on the wallet because that’s not the right wallet you recovered.

Not all wallets are passphrase-based only.
This is what happened to one of my friends who used Wasabi wallet for the first time he stored $5 worth of Bitcoin a few months ago he kept his passphrase but not the password associated with that wallet, so when he tried to create a new wallet on Wasabi and Electrum the balance and the transactions did not show up, unfortunately, he did not record the only transaction and he has no contact to the guy who sends him that $5
I am not familiar with Wasabi and all his efforts to recover the wallet with the transaction and balance did not yield a result until we checked the documentation and saw this.
I decided to post it here for all newbies and I guess who are unfamiliar with Wasabi, to check read, and understand the documentation associated with any wallet I guess it is not only wallets but anything that has documentation or better use a wallet that you are more familiar.
