:Hi Peter. I appreciate your pointing this out. I'm not surprised and appreciate this is far from a trivial suggestion. It will take time and may fail, but I am not convinced the current policy is well justified. If a Referendum on Pseudonymity did materialize and failed to pass, I still think it would have been worthwhile because it will have resulted in generating a more nuanced consideration for the existing policy. Going through the process should also result in a great article on the topic of [[pseudonymity]]. I would welcome the opportunity to collaborate with you on it. ;-)
