You don't want there to be both official and user subreddits with the same name. Would lead to a lot of confusion.

I remember in the early days of the web, whitehouse.com was a porn site. Which obviously got a lot of traffic from people trying to go to whitehouse.gov. (incidentally, including my 5th grade teacher. Oops). You'd see something similar.
