Restrict Nitro user to pick Discriminator number if already being used (check description below for detail)

I was witnessing two occurrences where two of our team members' Discord acct names and discriminator being copied (via Nitro) and used to scamming our entire team members and community members within our server. My feedback is, can Nitro block the user to chose of discriminator by checking if the Discriminator # for that particular username exist? If its been done, and the perpetrator use homo-glyph attack technique... can this warrant a serious consideration to strictly enforced Latin chars (A-Z 0-9) for username instead to prevented this? It's very easy for bad actors to pay Nitro to facilitate this bad technique easily at this moment, which will hurt Discord's reputation in long run, like what Slack was like (easily spoof-able).

  Cool idea but, I personally like all the ASCII characters that can be in names. It’d be a shame to pay to lose that feature. ...if that’s what you’re saying

  Half of the idea is alright, basically similar names with the same discriminator can exist and handling that somehow is a good idea, however restricting usernames to [A-Za-z\d] is definitely not the solution to it.

  You cannot have the same username and Discriminator as someone else, and if too many people have the same username, no one can get it anymore.
