yes - I was thinking that there was a possibility that someone could change
the username SYSDBA to something else. But I see now that that's not
possible (?).
You are told in GSEC docs that you have to delete a user and re-create one
if you ever want to change a username. I have never tried it but I imagine
that you get an exception if you ever tried to delete SYSDBA?
