Do we at this point have any substantial data on just how many users Reddit actually lost due to this?

Any resources would be greatly appreciated.

As a sidenote, I'll add that they certainly lost my account the second I couldn't use RiF anymore.

You can have the same name across multiple instances. I assume in the background there is a @yourinstance.tld as part of the name, but all the clients I've seen show just the initial part of it. I could see some impersonation and confusion issues.
