If you search for a persons name, well after they've changed it, the page still comes up. Its...ugly.
You're giving the large majority of twitter users, and internet users in general, a whole lot of credit here. It's quite possible that the lot of them are practically ignorant to the consequence of it all.
Although, I understand if you were just pointing out the facts.
