We're obviously not all in agreement about how identity should work online (let alone how it works offline), which is kind of a big problem considering identity is something every single one of us automatically has from birth. We may never agree on it, but we may at least mostly agree on it one day (outliers never go away). In the meantime, I'm okay with some level of fluctuation in the practice of online identities, since it indicates some level of (at least attempted) innovation, and trial-and-error at the internet level is never really that bad of a thing. So yeah, this would probably be annoying for a while. But let's see how it pans out.
