Unbanning sharing your Roblox account

Recently, Roblox has put security measures on it's <13 users (see more here however it doesn't talk about the new feature where <13 users cannot see group walls) and so I think it's lots more safe to include your Roblox account in Scratch
This suggestion is just to try and reconnect the Scratch and Roblox community.
Thoughts?

No, Roblox still doesn't have the same moderation as Scratch. Even if it's “more safe” I still don't think Roblox is to be trusted.

No support, I wouldn't talk about a platform full of predators and stuff.

And do you know how easy it is to lie about your age in Roblox? This is also kinda inefficient if Subject A and B are 13+

The reasons for why it's disallowed still apply, even if it's gotten better.

Roblox is most definitely not safe for people below 13.

did you know you can make ROBLOX safer through parental controls so parents can keep their children safe however you still shouldn't share ROBLOX usernames on children's sites including scratch

Worst suggestion because Roblox is full of preds did you see how much Roblox users where exposed as being preds this year, scratch while questionable moderation at least has a good community and connecting them with that community is just a big mistake and also the lying about your age thingy in Roblox you get the jist and also parental control is easy to bypass in Roblox,

I'm just saying that this suggestion wouldn't work at all since hmmm scratch is for little kids and Roblox is full of 13+ kids this is not a good suggestion

And what about for the 13+ users? Do the same safety features apply? Note that Scratch is not only for those aged below 13, so if the same safety features don't apply for 13+ users, I doubt the Scratch Team would be willing to revert the Roblox restrictions.

The changes that Roblox implemented, while good, do not scale enough well with the safety measures we have on Scratch. It overall still has too many features that classify it into the territory of an unsafe social media site, so unfortunately, the decision to restrict Roblox usernames as per our Community Guidelines still exists:

For safety reasons, don't give out any information that could be used for private communication, in person or online. This includes sharing real last names, phone numbers, addresses, hometowns, school names, email addresses, usernames or links to social media sites, video chatting applications, or websites with private chat functionality.
