From the sound of it (haven't used ChromeOS in ~4 years), "log into" means switching users without powering off the laptop, while "boot into" means to reboot the computer and log in as the other user. For a device that is supposedly built around security, needing to know that the "Switch User" menu shouldn't ever be used to switch the user is something of a footgun.
- lrem 5y ago"Shouldn't ever be used" is an overstatement though. My employer (Google, no less) would apply restrictions, but not hoover logs from the personal profile. Meaning it's still good to have messaging and music there while working.
