my expectation is that all followers of $USERNAME will be listed. However, what appears to happen is that the first 100 followers' names are displayed, then there is a pause, then the same 100 names are displayed again; this cycle repeats (I stopped it after four iterations).
Sounds like a bug based on a misunderstanding of the twitter protocol: the 100 is the limit per API call, then I suspect twidge is treating the limit as an error and retrying the command, when it should be repeating with an offset to get the next group (possibly with rate limiting).
