What is it with the fetish for inflicting Truenaming in cyberspace?
It's incredibly annoying. It needlessly bloats digital footprints, and it creates an opportunity for exploitation by nefarious actors.
Leave the Truenaming to the User's that need it. It doesn't do any good being baked in by default. If they really need it, they'll figure out a way to implement it. If they definitely cannot afford it, and aren't aware it is there by default, you are doing more harm putting It in than you would be by leaving well enough alone.
