    I don’t know why it’s inhibiting you here, but Linux is a multi-user OS (meaning multiple users can be logged in at the same time), so it definitely makes sense for it to have a mechanism like that. If another user is in the middle of a long-running operation, it might be very bad to forcibly cancel that…
