I don't remember if Jetbrains needs a password to get to personal licenses, but they definitely do to use their bug database. I suspect they're not the only one.
Letting other people blow off steam can be an act of self-preservation. Insisting that people only ever do 100% work things at work or on work hardware slightly raises your low-but-never-zero chances of being murdered by coworkers. Or less ironically, hilariously intense bridge-burning activities.
Also most of this conversation is happening during work hours so I think we can infer that grandparent is being a little hypocritical.
