Is that because there would be no consequences if I showed up to my job and started calling every customer I talk to "Frank"?

Or is it because deliberately going out of your way to call people the wrong name to make a political point isn't a thing that anyone does, so nobody has needed a rule to make them knock it off?

You know, in being subtle like that, I fear you might not be making your point clearly enough for the others.

Yep, I missed it until your comment prompted me to read more carefully and again.
