37001	get_system_username silently returns empty string on failure	Shashank Kushwaha	Shashank Kushwaha	"The function `get_system_username()` silently returns an empty string when exceptions occur (ImportError, KeyError, OSError).

This may make debugging difficult and can lead to unexpected downstream behavior where an empty username is treated as valid.

### Expected behavior

It might be helpful to at least log this situation (e.g., at debug level) to improve visibility.

### Context

This behavior occurs in environments where `getpass.getuser()` fails (e.g., restricted systems or missing passwd entries)."	Bug	closed	Utilities	6.0	Normal	wontfix	error-handling username logging		Unreviewed	1	0	0	0	0	0
