I suspect that the reasons to block a word in a post and the set of reserved usernames are pretty different to most people. Redundant though it may seem, you’ll need to add those words to `reserved usernames` if you want users not to claim them.

OTOH, if a user registers an account with a word that you think is inappropriate, it could be a good way to know to just ban that user from the start. 🙂
