It's just that when you create a community, it's different from registering a new username.
I understood perfectly what you were pointing out, and that is why I wrote the explanation that I did. What do you mean though, you don't see why it ought to happen to every purged account? A purged account no longer has the same owner, that's why.
People who work for Dreamwidth certainly have more resources than regular users, so if it is a lot of work to completely purge an account, it would be much easier for them to do it.
But what kind of logic is that, anyway? Purge a username so that someone else might be able to use it in the future, but then have the mentality that most of them won't be used anyway. That makes no sense. Not only that, it isn't a very nice thing to say, and just because you don't know someone who would like to use a purged username.
