Some people knew her as Steph, others remember him more for when he was Steve. Both names are alive in memory. If people are fluid, no bfd.

Honor her identity, not your feelings. If you didn't know her as Steph it's because she didn't trust you and you're proving that right.

In his piece, he used both names. How is that erasure?

Deadnaming is erasure, it legitimizes a belief that we are not really women.
