I can see your point, but this isn’t something that Discourse necessarily decided one way or another. Discourse follows a markdown convention called CommonMark, and it specifies that # should be converted into an H1. I think this convention for how markdown headings are converted to HTML tags is pretty standard across major markdown specifications.
