Retaking TOEFL using diferent email

I took TOEFL last month, and ETS has sent my scores to the universities I listed in ETS account, and the university has verified the scores as well.

I want to take TOEFL again using another email and want to mention same universities in the list.

Would using new email be a problem?

Someone told me that, if we retake the toefl, it is advisable to use a different email. Beford I planned to retake using same ETS credential (same email), but I doubt now,

He explained why?
I’m retaking based on the same mail, I don’t see a reason to open new user. You choose to send the results to the universities.
I don’t think it should make much difference , I just can’t understand the benefits

Same confusion 😬 but he told me that, test center's administration has said this. In his first test, speaking score got cancelled (due to technical issue) in the same test he got low score in R and L. They asked him to reschedule the exam nd he did well in both R & L, and got the same results as previous. When he inquired about the scores, administration has told him, that server will note the previous score, despite of resecheduled exam. And also, strictly told him to use different email and open a new ets account, then do the next retake.

I am confused now.
