Why on earth did the writer have to use their full names every single time he mentioned them? We get it, their last name is Toto!

Typically you'd mention an individual solely by their last name after first mention, except where multiple people have the same last name. It's a puff piece, but they're still following style guidelines.

It’s annoying and ruins the flow of the story. There’s no reason not to refer to them by their first names after the first use of their full names. Common sense over style guide.

Agreed, especially since this is hardly breaking news.
