Sure, but there's a difference between public forums (where I wouldn't necessarily put my full name) and request-only Messenger contacts.

Fair point.
I personally don't mind sharing my full name with my Messenger contacts, but that's just me.
But even if there is a strong argument to keep nicknames, do you really think they'll change it back? I highly doubt they will, hence the "get used to it" approach.
