This feels very not right… How can they refuse email change? Can only imagine how many people who eventually change their emails and want theirs changed too. What a shitty thing.

    There’s plenty of reasons someone might want to discard an email address. You’d even be surprised by the number of people who use their current work email as their personal email.

    One of the reasons we cannot reuse email addresses from terminated employees is because there are applications - legacy internal and external third party - which use email address as the identifier. This creates other problems with naming.

    I went into some additional detail in another comment nearby.
