Only if "who said what in internet" is important to you. I you focus in the ideas and content instead than in the envelope this accounts can be still valuable

Same here.

I don't care what name is associated with a given comment.

It's the content of the comment that matters to me.

Many of the most insightful and informative comments I've ever seen have come from "throwaway" accounts.

Many of the most useless comments I've ever seen have come from prominent, real-name accounts.
