> It harms everyone when we redefine safety

How is allowing someone to use a different name harmful to everyone ?

So childish.
I go by two names. A legal name and one my friends call me.

Legally I'm Pizza. My buddies call me Za.

I don't care for my legal name and don't identify by it. I haven't legally changed it for many reasons.

I am not harmed by someone using my legal name.

Verifying someone's identity should be against a legal identity as contracts are bound to legal entity.
