I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. But if it's that the identity mechanism on Gitcoin (aged github accounts) isnt perfect, then I think you're absolutely right.

I think a more important question is "are the round results valid?" Vitalik goes into this in his post - As Vitalik notes in his post, we are certainly reaching the limits of our existing identity framework as more money/users get involved.

Identity networks are a chicken and egg problem. My view is that Gitcoin being one of the first widely/actively used Ethereum products (https://gitcoin.co/results) we have a unique opportunity (and challenge/responsibility honestly) to bootstrap a DID network.

Here's some incremental improvements were gonna make in round 6: Identity - https://github.com/gitcoinco/web/issues/6549 Collusion - https://github.com/gitcoinco/web/issues/6548
