What if you want to give instructions to teach your friend?
How would you tell him to go to his home folder?
- Go to Places then "Mike".
What if the vendor who installed the system to him chose some generic username to him? what if instead of "Mike" he put "Michael"? There won't be a consistent way to call it, how would he call it when he doesn't know that it's the "home" folder? he will call it "Mike's" folder? kinda weird.
We need a generic name for the folder so that it can be referred in a generic sense without knowing the username of the specific user account.
I vote for "User Home", or if you don't like white spaces call it "Userhome" (Username is also lacking the whitespace, isn't it?).
The "username" idea is not practical.
