This has been a long-running issue for several friends of mine having offensive and harassing comments being left in their chats, and being unable to delete them because the user abuses the name changing system and the comment gets left for all to witness. It completely devalues the moderation abilities of providing safe and healthy environments when we are left unable to remove any such targeted comments.
This is in addition to users being able to bypass a lot of ban evasion markers by using VPNs to create multiple accounts, and any reporting feedback is summarily met with "oh well, nothing we can do."
Having a tool like this is a small step back in the right direction with giving content creators the power to effectively moderate and weed out bad actors.
