Ion Auth - Lightweight Auth System based on Redux Auth 2

Just tried out the library - surprised that duplicate usernames can be registered with different email addresses. When/why would anyone want this functionality? I feel like most people would want to sign in with either username or email. Can you describe the thought process behind allowing one or the other to be unique instead of requiring BOTH to be unique by default?

I just can't see it being useful to allow duplicate usernames registered under different emails, or duplicate emails registered under different usernames. Actually seems like it could lead to confusion and identity issues.

Maybe I'm missing something, just hard to imagine that this works for real world sites.
