MySQL on Mac?

PHP
1

I used to gracefully handle the case where MySQL has multiple users named root for localhost on Windows like so. I mean change the password so they are all the same. This only relates to local testing developement

UPDATE mysql.user SET Password = PASSWORD('444441') WHERE User = 'root'

Now that I am using a Mac for certain tasks, I said let me try to understand the setup of Apache PHP & MySQL on that platform. So now I am in phpMyAdmin looking at many root users where I have only set the password for one. Is this something I should be concerned with or is it OK now a days to have it, and leave it set up like so?

On a local box it doesn’t matter.
