Thanks for the invite! I think I'm going to pass; I don't meet your anonymity ideals. I reveal as little of myself as possible because I want everyone to be forced to engage with the content that I write, not any features of my identity which readers might discern.

It keeps me honest, and them too. Well, it should. People love to guess things, usually wrongly, and then imagine what I would have said if their guess had been correct, and respond to that instead of what I did say.

There is a strong argument for an individual-identity-linked reputational system to curtail toxic behavior, so I don't disagree with your choice. But I'm more with Argumentative Penguin when it comes to such things.
