Regarding the immutability of the TMC username -- are article histories stored as text values or User IDs?
Both.
If it's the latter, someone with database access can hack TMC's username and poof! all the histories automagically change to read "Fluffy bunny land" or something.
That could be done with a single database query in either case.
