Again, as mentioned before: key here is that permitting user processes to stick around after all sessions of the user ended needs to be a privilieged concept. It should not be allowed for user code to stick around after logout, unless this is explicitly permitted by the admin, and this hence needs to be enforced by privileged code. Hence, whether a process reacts to SIGHUP or SIGTERM or not is not suitable at all as indication on whether to permit them to stay around or not, because that's something that is exclusively up to the processes themselves, and requires no privileges at all to make use of.
