I have seen no logical explanation of *why* anybody supports this policy. I've only seen vague hand-wavy statements like "people who use real names are more reliable." Really? Where's the proof? I bet there's a fairly large number of badly maintained projects on Hackage, and I bet it has little or no correlation with the accuracy of the maintainers' listed names.
Even if it's true, what harm is there in allowing less reliable maintainers to upload packages? So we end up with a few extra packages that nobody uses. So what?
