It's just shitty micromanagement for the purpose of flexing your authority on the business you own.
My Mother once rang HR at her job, they asked what her number was, as in payroll number, she told them that and her name, and the HR person responded "I'm not interested in what your name is. I only need your number".

Half the thread seem to think they crafted this policy solely to dunk on trains

Yeah, it's weird. A policy is equally applied to everyone; therefore, trains are being targeted and are most affected. In this imaginary scenario, couldn't they simply change their legal name? And wouldn't that have already been done since "deadnaming" is heckin dysphoric and the bad?

Preferred names are an annoyance at best and nightmare at worst when it comes to documentation. If it's that important that you be called by a specific chosen name in a legal IRL setting then change your darn name. There are so many public services that will even pay for it for you if you're broke.

They are just encouraging trains to finally take the plunge and change their legal names. I see this as nothing but wholesome encouragement for them.

This is why I had to get out of corporate. The whole "team" thing drives me crazy.
I think the OP is exaggerating and if I had a guess, they want them to use their full name in communication (like email signatures) and not in everyday conversations. I don't really think this is the full story.

It says something that these people are so low-skilled that they're putting up with this and not immediately jumping ship. My last company changed our healthcare provider to one I didn't like and I dipped out, netting myself a significant pay raise in the process. Lots of companies are desperate for skilled workers, if you're stuck at this clearly dysfunctional place it's because you suck butt, and deserve whatever treatment you get.
