    Because before the numbers weren’t really part of your username, they didn’t show up in chat etc and you only really used them when trying to find a specific user. But now they will actually be part of your username and show up everywhere. You also don’t really get a choice, you’re either the first person to want your username or you’re forced to include numbers

      Well not really, they added account wide display names for that
