I never used a password on Windows because I’ve never seen a reason for one. No one touches my computer. That’s what the physical locks on my doors are for.
I only use a password in Linux because it forces me to. The first thing I tried to do was disable it.



My grandmother, who has no interest in my computer.

What if someone guesses your password? Why don’t you keep your computer in a custom built safe bolted to the floor? There’s always another level of security you could hypothetically require, I just live in reality where the truth is no one is touching my computer.
It takes a second or so every time (sometimes a couple of seconds, I’m not always booting my computer with the intent to type shit immediately) which adds up over time. Sometimes I mistype, wasting 10+ seconds. And the benefit of this mild inconvenience is nothing.
