A lot of software would be much better without stupid clients asking for the wrong things.

Eh, I understand it. They want to put some name in the identity control in the header. Putting the full name in is guaranteed to go wrong. We might start asking for a nickname for that purpose.

Why is the full name guaranteed to go wrong? A better assumption is that there is no reasonable nickname and you have to use their full name.
