Comment (by keraweb):

 In fact, looking at the code in `get_avatar_data`, it looks like using an
 email address is even more logical since that doesn't require querying a
 user at all.

 The first parameter can also be the user object itself, or a post /
 comment object where it will look for the author so the usage of this
 function differs a lot within the WP core base. In the end all it needs to
 get the avatar is the email address, nothing more (since gravatar is based
 on the email address).
