>If Satoshi disclaimed the identity of D. Nakamoto in 2014, why wouldn't he disclaim the identity of Craig Wright today?

One reason he might disclaim Dorian is that he simply wanted the poor man left alone. The claim that Dorian was the creator of Bitcoin was not only completely ridiculous on its face, but also a huge intrusion in the life of a clueless old man.

Wright has brought a bunch of ridicule upon himself, but it's his own fault.

Maybe it's just because nobody believes Wright. Not much to discredit.

Yea, I agree with that.
