> how can changing the display name be a privacy feature if the connected and public user id always remains the same?
Because it allows users to change away from display names that leak PI or are associated with other activities (social media and so on) and yes this requires removing them from dumps and diffs too. But there is no point in restarting discussion of what was vetted by numerous experts in the field, I was just piping up to, probably in vain, stop the OSMF from digging itself an even deeper hole that what it is already in.
