A theoretical key appeal of being anon is only the ideas matter, not who writes them

Realistically, the pseudonym does get attached to the ideas, but I think the pseudonym is relatively easier forgotten, and the ideas linger on attributed to many other people influenced by the anon - so does achieve the goal long term

i don’t see myself navigating the internet anonymously, at least not today, but even the perspective of it feels incredibly freeing. 

there is a strong reason why no one knows who satoshi is, and that is a decision that was made with a strong awareness of its consequence.
