Because user can't specify the name of the custom project namespace so I add this blocker.
From looking through the code statically, it explicitly made readonly (in WebInstallerName.php#L76-L79) with the intention that it is also hidden by default. Then, through the enabledByOther functionality, when selecting other, the JavaScript code will make it visible, and remove the readonly attribute (in config.js).
From my point of view, javascript did not remove the readonly attribute. I don't know if other people also have this problem.
