Just speculating that it may be a security reason. Having your name keeps things simple but when you open it to nicknames and the such I’m sure changes will slip through the net that will allow someone to defraud another person because it is similar to another name/company or offensive/racist ones etc.

This is spot on

We have no real way to know whether a pseudonym is accurate or a way for someone to potentially defraud other people sadly It wouldn’t be fair for us to allow it in some cases and not others so we stick to a derivation of your preferred name
