Mainly because this is a single account game. You don’t buy a secondary Cmdr, you are free however to buy a secondary version of the game, much to FD amusement. Putting a switch option in game puts an emphasis on this, and likely would cause some confusion to new players who would think the can have multiple Cmdrs, when in fact they can’t, they are just re-buying the game? It just wouldn’t look good.Why oh why did they not put in easy multiple account switching? Why can't the launcher remember more than one email and password?
