A) The cheat may post-date your choice of username. Even if you're aware of the name (and thus avoid using it in-game), you probably wouldn't change (or even think to change) a long standing system username. B) Non-TF2 players probably _aren't_ going to be aware of TF2 cheat names.

I understand that it is a major issue (it's one of the reasons I haven't returned to TF2 in a while), but that's not a great reason to accept a poor solution that could effect innocent users.
