I mean, pretending to be someone in another instance, “stealing” the username, is trivial. I see the more likely targets being instance admins or high profile users. Should we worry somewhat about this?

His concern is probably that in comments etc. only username is displayed. You have to go to person’s profile to discover their instance.
Instance is shown if it’s different to the one you’re on. I can see your instance is vlemmy.net
