Because the same window appears after shutting down, log out, and restarting, change it to this and user can know whose account is on this computer, so as to avoid users forgetting their account name after a long time. Think

Log Out is what you call "Leave 'Username'". Personally I don't like the concept of usernames at all, because they make the experience inconsistent for different users. I want to be able to write in, e.g., a manual: "System -> Log Out" instead of "System -> ". Also I don't like usernames leaking into screenshots. The name of the user may be something the user wants to keep private. Hence I don't want to show it in many places in the UI. And just as a reminder, up to System 7 (=back when it was good and simple) there was not even the concept of users on the Mac because this is a personal computer (= 1 computer for 1 person).

Or change it to "Leave the computer"
