I tested this laucher and its a joke, if you add all your accounts to one PASSWORD your stupid as &#^$ .
If someone quesses your Jagex password you lose all your accounts.
Also the Laucher didnot ask me for authenticator to login like WTF who thinks of this.
Not quite - Jagex accounts have mandatory MFA - you're going to need more than just a password to log in. In order to log into a Jagex account, you need to either enter a verification code sent to your email, an authenticator code from an authenticator app, or a backup code (provided when setting up the authenticator). Which options are available for use depends on what you set up and enable/disable (you can disable email codes if you have authenticator enabled, for example).
The launcher asks for your info at initial login (including authenticator), then remembers it as long as you open it regularly. If you're using a shared PC or would prefer to enter your info at each login, you can always log out of the launcher when you're done playing.
Players have complained about insufficient security and flaws with RuneScape accounts for years, this new system provides much more in terms of security than the older system could ever provide and eliminates many known weaknesses of the old system. Yes, its different, and does take some time to get used to, but once you've gotten over the adoption phase it is quite a nice improvement over what we had.
