I would venture to guess that 80%+ of the handles are the same on both, enough for the graph to be useful especially for the more popular accounts. If not I bet there’s enough other metadata to do a decent job of mapping them it doesn’t have to be perfect just good enough to get the recommendation engine going. At least enough to bootstrap a recommendation algorithm that is geared more toward primary accounts that create text based content.

Who cares about your guess? You're just doubling down on your previous faulty argument, and anyone would know that there is not a 1:1 between handles on Instagram and Twitter
