In the same way Unibet allows people to change names, people can create as many swcpoker accounts as they want, giving people the option to be anon (which recs seem to enjoy; see ignition/bovada) if they want.
But there’s some incentive to play one account, since your rakeback is determined by the total amount of your non-expiring lifetime rake. So for example, I have gotten to 33% rb tier cuz I play on only one account. But others might prefer to make a new name every session, if they are embarassed by their results. It’s a good equilibrium and gives recs and regs what they each might want, respectively.
But like I said in the rest of the post you didn’t quote, there’s plenty of other reasons to play there as well. Lowest rake in industry, no extra rake bbjp, and everything from tiny micro to high stakes (where the rake is exceptionally low)
