Seriously, what were they expecting? They're better off removing account-wide blacklisting and removing any mention of client IDs on the client rather than just obfuscating them. Jackasses may be able to make another character to harass someone, but that's preferable than to let the harasser also know what alts you have. Do they have the job design team doing double duty on cyber security?
