I took it in as though we were discussing the recent activity, not that
it was ONLY this instance that we care about.  I have a number of
friends who have more than 1 set of names and specifically wish to to by
one set over the other.  The point is that there is a vocal portion of
people in the world who insist on deadnaming people, and that is not
okay.

As a project, we support people by addressing them by their preferred
name, and honoring their wishes as to name, gender, honorifics, etc. For
all people. If a person chooses to go by their "maiden name" or their
"married name" or a pseudonym, that's their prerogative.
