That’s hardly doxxing. Asking if two publicly visible usernames might be related is hardly alarming.

What about the part where they revealed the full name of the person allegedly behind the two usernames?

To be absolutely, 100% clear: your position is that someone who writes on the Internet, a statement of the form:

> Let's suppose, just for the sake of argument, that [username] is a PhD student named [real name]. Specifically, this [real name]:"

> "[real name] is a PhD candidate [major] at [university name]. He received his BA (Hons) in [major] from [university]. Previously [real name] received his rabbinical ordination from the [other school] in [location] in [year]. [real name] is also the [job title] at [organization]."

is not "doxxing"?

Let's suppose, just for the sake of argument, that I find that patently absurd.
