You can make PINs as complex as you want, there's only a maximum length limitation of 20 characters. There's no difference between passwords and PINs in Windows except that Windows calls it a PIN if it's used with TPM. And yes, it does nudge you in the direction of making it simple because "TPM guarantees security", but you don't have to.
