I believe the idea is just that it's being rolled

First opt-in for admins, then opt-in for all users, and finally (we
haven't gotten here yet) automatic for all users, or at least all
users without conflicts. I completely made up the figure of a couple
of months, but I'd be a little surprised if it weren't in effect by
then.
Alright, as long as we are at least preventing new accounts with names
which would create more conflicts (over the next "couple of months") I
can be patient.
