I don't spend the entire day in front of the computer. Most days I need to do dishes or laundry, or leave the house on some errand. I rarely have more than a couple hours in the evening to work on long-term projects on the computer. And during the rest of the day, I often need to look things up, which typically takes a few seconds. If i had to login each time, then logout afterward, I'd be doing that 50 times a day, wasting huge amounts of time. If I have to pee while watching a movie, I'd have to hold it in while exiting mplayer and logging out, then when I returned I'd have to login, start mplayer, and try to remember how many minutes into the movie I had been. Way too disruptive of the movie-watching experience.
