Funny. Your first link returns http://www.youtube.com/oops and I don't have these options under general account settings: http://i.imgur.com/yOny4pC.png

What works for Youtube is to create another channel and use that channel and the created page to post comments via pseudonym. I can switch between my original Google Account and the newly created channel. I don't have an option for my primary account through. For this does not matter but if you had personal data in your old Youtube account there is no easy way to hide this information without loosing Google+ as far I understood that problem now.

Interesting, I wonder if this is different in different countries. I'm in the UK, maybe that's the difference? Or potentially the age of the account?

My best guess is this: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2657858?hl=en&ref_...

I linked the Channel to my Google+ accounts a few weeks ago.
