I am having a very hard time following your logic. You made an assertion about there being no standard for usernames. I pointed you to some info someone wrote in the relevant issue on Github regarding what POSIX asserts usernames should conform to, with POSIX being generally accepted to be a standard for *nix type OS's. Your response appears to boil down to "But POSIX doesn't count because not all distro's are POSIX certified"

POSIX counts, for POSIX systems. There is no standard for systemd supported systems. The logic is straightforward, like the reality.
