Right, but why would everyone want to logout? If you don't remember how you login you're probably a npc. I'm not sure it's a good idea to signal the computer that you want to "exit".

It’s a joke about existentialism. They don’t know if they’re NPCs, or just users who somehow forgot. And if they’re NPCs, they don’t want to be.

Believe me, they're not easier, and they don't fail cleanly.
