The viewing of the recent files list was to discount this statement:

I probably should have discounted that statement by mentioning that
both people can use the computer not at the same time. Yosi uses the
computer for two hours, decides that he does not want whoever is using
the computer after him to see his recent files, and erases the list.
Then Erez comes along and has no idea which files Yosi viewed.

That should probably be expanded to include Yosi's browsing history as well.
