the question is: don't the trust "us" or the world?
If you ever meet them in real-life at some conference, it could be
completely different.
Because I use my real/legal name for my work on KDE, the company I work
for got some weeks ago some
ugly "misuse..." complaint because some other company thinks I named an
Phabricator task inappropriate.
(name clash)
And because they could easily track me back to my work place with
trivial searching, they went there with their
complaints. I can see that some people want to avoid such hassle. In
some companies that could spell serious trouble.
Greetings
Christoph
