It's a bit uncomfortable.

I have kind of the same feeling. Though real name doesn't have to be
legal name.
the question is: don't the trust "us" or the world?
If you ever meet them in real-life at some conference, it could be completely different.

Because I use my real/legal name for my work on KDE, the company I work for got some weeks ago some ugly "misuse..." complaint because some other company thinks I named an Phabricator task inappropriate.
(name clash)

And because they could easily track me back to my work place with trivial searching, they went there with their complaints. I can see that some people want to avoid such hassle. In some companies that could spell serious trouble.

Greetings
Christoph
