The whole thing is, I never was arguing against your point.

I was just saying there's not much incentive to do anything about it.

No, it doesn't. If someone has your password, they'll be logged on as you anyway. The only thing that'll happen to you is that you'll be logged out, and chances are you won't notice this and will just log back in. Repeat for other person.
Why do you need to switch between computers/connections while logged in, anyway?
I usually have my laptop next to my desktop. When my desktop is busy with a large processing job (90% of the time, it's doing something that requires the full attention of the CPU), I don't want to draw time doing Web tasks. Thus, I'll switch to the laptop. And so on.
Most of the stuff you do on the org, you don't have to be logged in to do...
I usually download new videos from the Golden Donut. You need to be logged in to do that.

Yeah, this should be fixed... Bugs me, too.
