Not sure why, since it isn't in any practical or philosophical sense.

I judge the merits of a post by the content. I don't know if you're Celebrity X or Author of Y and I don't care much. Yes it would be useful to reference other statements, but that's something you often sacrifice in an open (even moderated) online forum. It's a strength of the platform as well.
