Instead of accommodating for it's users it wants its users to accommodate for Facebook.
No, they are absolutely accommodating for their users -- and their users are advertisers. That is THE problem. Facebook Inc's #1 priority is making money (like all for-profit enterprises), and therefore their #1 priority is to make advertisers happy.
Why should advertisers care if you incorrectly 'spell' your name? All Facebook should care about, to support their income, is engaging real users - real names or no.
Advertisers want engaged, affluent users. Affluent users don't like getting trolled or harassed (supposedly). Real names create accountability, reducing trolling and harassment (supposedly). An application of the Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory, if you will.
