Well, assuming this would e.g. be a server log, you could want to notice that some IP or set of IPs tried to log in with different user accounts across an extended period of time. So even if there is no linguistic relationship here, there is definitely a relationship that a security person would want to be able to discover. But that may be a secondary step after parsing the individual log lines.
