I appreciate having names. If I couldn't attend the meeting, but someone's opinion was concerning or interesting to me, I can go talk to them about it. I've also appreciated names when years later we are reviewing notes to understand why some decision was made. More than once I've seen something like "Jane objects because she prefers slorgles to boffits"...and now Jane doesn't remember that at all, and has now come to prefer boffits...so we know it's a good time to revisit out slorgles decisions. And there remains that reality that opinions don't just exist in a vacuum...we all have a history that informs our thoughts on all matters...being aware of other people's "back story" helps me understand their opinions in context. I've heard the theory that opinions should always be considered on their context-free merit, without names, but I don't agree with that at all.
