In most cases, people involuntarily hold on to formality as a well of showing reverence to a particular person for what they've done. I for once, I tend to forget to stick to an individual's preferred way of addressing them when I have a deep admiration of their works. And for you Yihui, you may not actually realise it but most people have immerse respect for you as a person and the tools you've developed which needless to say they are super helpful!
