not that I'm particularly invested in your spat, but the 'anonymous' part generally applies to the audience, not to the admins. they always have access to more data, for what I hope are obvious reasons
same shit if you ever take an "anonymous" survey at work or whatever, but then people who didn't fill them out get penalized (how would they know???). anonymity is a gradient at best, but something always slips through

that's not even going into the fact that you could easily run an LLM on sturdy and identify to whom a post belongs to with like 99% probability through syntactic analysis alone, as long as he's been there for a while

come to think of it I'm not sure why i'm posting it, except perhaps as a general warning to everybody that you really shouldn't share identifying information anywhere under the assumption it's anonymous - it rarely is.
