my kids' DeutschlandTickets were cancelled because my name changed and we had to get new ones for everyone. another count for the "programmers mysteriously believe name field is immutable" systems

it's not even trans people alone (and we're like 1% of the dataset already), it's

- people getting married
- people getting divorced
- people getting adopted (including adults)
- immigrants who choose the option to naturalise their names
- people who win in court about name change for reputation (ridiculous name) or other reasons
- countries with an "artistic name" rule

why programmers keep treating people's names as immutable is beyond me
