As the article says, they have to keep providing any former name for five years except when changed by marriage.

Makes sense. That's the case for many things, though. Especially in the public where name changes are often used to "re-brand" for lack of a better term. Don't really see the issue to be honest. Not really a fan of a person being exempt from the stuff everyone else has to do.
