If you don't want people cursing or whatever on your server, that's your choice; You can ban whoever you want and it really won't affect anything; There are hundreds of TF2 servers out there and playing have tons of other choices. As an aside, I grew up playing Quake when I was 7 and there was all sorts of cursing and abusive stuff on there and I'd say I turned out fine.
Clearly Valve is moving towards all games using the Steam profile name and they want you to change that if you'd like to change any game names. I'd say the percentage of people this will negatively affect is quite minimal and overall it makes it easier for players to have 1 name to manage. Either way, a discussion of morals isn't really conducive to this topic nor really to the mailing list either.
