You can argue it is more confusing but it is by definition not more restricting. It gives everyone the chance to just use whatever name they want which is the opposite of how restricting unique usernames are. Also, you can already change your display name by server.

But it's not actually the user name they want since it is required to have a special number attached to it. Which is the part that makes it confusing, and also a restriction.
