Why do you even bother to register named accounts? The WMF Policy expressly states that you don't have to be registered to post. Depending on where you live, you probably have a pool of IP addresses that span the metro area where you live. And you can edit from an IPv6 address, too.
What are they gonna do, block the entire third world to keep you out?
I created named accounts for many reasons. For example, only named accounts can edit through semiprotection. Also, named accounts keep contribution logs together even though the edits were made in different places.
By the way, Barry, you and I live in the same metropolitan area.
