Sure, your heuristic no longer works, and that's a bit inconvenient. We'll just find new ones.
Yeah, now you need to be able to demonstrate verbal fluency. The problem is, that inherently means a loss of “trusted anonymous” communication, which is particularly damaging to the fiber of the internet.

Precisely, in the age where it is very difficult to ascertain the type or quality of skills you are interacting with say in a patch review or otherwise you frankly have to "judge" someone and fallback to suspicion and full verification.
Yeah I think "trust for a fluent, seemingly logically coherent anonymous responder" pretty much captures it.

It’s like if someone started bricking up tunnel entrances and painting ultra realistic versions of the classic Road Runner tunnel painting on them, all over the place. You’d have to stop and poke every underpass with a stick just to be sure.
