Mm, I was actually around here when we hit peak Facebook Connect (I think it was when Spotify launched in the US with no other auth method), and I call bullshit. It was never conventional wisdom on HN that you should delegate auth to Facebook. There were some people advocated that, and then some people who would loudly decry how stupid that was, but there was never consensus.
