Exclamation Southwest website doesn't log out properly?

I was signed into my wife's RR account, to see her upcoming work trip so that I could purchase tickets on the same flights to join her on the trip. Then I signed out of her account, but her itinerary remained displayed even after I logged her out. I never really noticed before, but I would expect a log out would trigger a redirect to the main site landing page. Then I logged into my RR account, the page reloaded, and her itinerary was still displayed despite being logged in with my account. I really expected once I logged in with my credentials the Trip Details page would refresh, but nope.

First image is while logged into her account (note her name), the second is after I logged out of her account and into mine.

I feel like this is something that should be corrected by WN IT to avoid possible security issues, but also want to post this as a reminder to everyone to do what you should already be doing and completely close out of your browsers after logging out.
