I'm thinking, cynical, of requiring everyone to sign-in, submit password, in order to speak with me...
Ridiculous of course, but the point is, to make a bunch of baggage, to wade through, if you need my OK or other response, for personal business...like ordering a burger at the counter.
"Would you like the single? Or the MEAL ?".
"We're sorry; You must enter user name and password, for Rick' verbal activation."
Just really muck things up, forcing EVERYONE to comply. Boy, that'd be nice; to have the power to cause everybody to comply with a stupid and time consuming login, that doesn't serve any obvious need. Unless it's data tracking, but THAT still don't fit my agenda.
(Just think how little a fellow like me would get, forcing or trying to force others to do a password action.
I'd probably starve).

I like to say:
"Given enough bugs, all eyes are shallow"
(And that's one of the reasons for stuff like Heartbleed)
Seems to fit nicely here.
