 separate profiles isn't helpful long-term.

 I agree about long term, but I think English support team wouldn't be
 happy either if `/support/profile/{username}` pages were gone right now,
 and there was no forum activity whatsoever on WP.org profiles, which is
 the case for us.

 To summarize, three things I'd like to see here:
 * In `content-single-topic-lead.php`, link either username or role to
 `/support/users/{username}/`.
 * Fix navigation on that page using [attachment:1868-redirect.diff].
 * Redirect `https://ru.forums.wordpress.org/profile/{username}` to
 `/support/users/{username}/`.

 (Some of our active contributors used to link to their forum profile from
 other sites, I don't see a reason to break that URL if we can redirect it
 to the correct place.)
