Ok, now this is total bullshit

There's no "special decryption algorithms" and the +salt thing also means nothing. You are now just digging whatever you write even more
Let me explain you one more thing
Hash = something that can't be decrypted. There is no "special algorithm" on that because it's just that, a hash. It can't be reversed. What it can be done is duplicated. Which would mean that you "duplicated" and hashed words of 16+ password lenght, which is so farfetched its insane to even think about.
List of Rainbow Tables shows you the size of a rainbow table that has 1 to 10 char lengths. Im pretty sure you dont have the disk space to store rainbow table for passwords with 16+ chars.
Furthermore, if you were to try to "crack" the hash of a password for a 16+ chars, im also sure you would never ever hit it.
Your remark of "+ salt" also makes no sense. Would have been better if you didnt say anything.
