I think it has something to do with all your posts and medals. I think it is simply too much of a hassle for the team.

Technically, you can have your named changed.

But you can also technically walk on water.

I thought is was because the system uses the username as the ID which links to other tables in the database. If they would use an ID for every user, like a number, it wouldn't be that hard to change a username. Anyway I don't know how it really works either. @shadowfiend is your guy for this kinda questions.
