Trying to see what business reason there would be to changing the customer
number.

Instead of 'customer number' think 'telephone number'.

From the 'Believe it or Not' files comes this one: a new customer signs

on to a business, and is aghast to discover that the computer has
assigned them a customer number with 666 in it. Customer insisted on a
new assignment, and got it.

It seems to me that anything facing the customer is subject to change.
