>A willingness to publish under one's own name using this silly WP-SVBTLE theme says way more about the author of the blog

The Atlantic theme looks like a fairly generic news website, to be honest.

That said, wow. You are reading a lot of personal bias into choice of website theme.

I was planning on grabbing this for my personal one just because I really, really like how it looks. If it's going to tick off people who over-extrapolate, so much the better ;)

I think it's a very bad idea to use this theme for your personal blog, regardless of what you think of Svbtle. But if you want your choice of blog theme to compete for attention with your ideas, that's your call.
