*Sorry for bad english*
This sounds like an opinion (albeit, slightly unpopular)... not something so controversial that you "need" a throwaway/burner account.

It seems like throwaway/burner accounts are becoming far too common now... I understand their use for posts seeking help in a (seemingly) toxic team situation, but other than that, I'd like for people to either 1) be willing to 'own' their opinion or situation, or 2) not post that, if it's really too controversial to attach to your name and team.
