I'm not sure what the situation is here, but on many sites making alt account to avoid bans can result in a lifetime ban. A high profile figure who's been banned from a service advertising that they still have access to it might be a risk.

Also, these companies (or data brokers) likely share ban and alt account lists, ban evading could hurt the reputation of all your accounts.

These are some pragmatic reasons not to evade bans.
