It's an interesting conundrum. There are good reasons and nefarious, for 
such behavior.

Some have questioned my behavior in similar regard - asking why I use 
initials (also used IRL). It is because my first name "David" is/was 
very popular. At a meeting this week there were three of us. Thus, 
"David", "Dave", and "dn" was necessary to distinguish between us.

These mailing-lists all run under the Python Code of Conduct.

This also effects a conundrum. Firstly, that someone abusing others (for 
example) shall be held responsible. Secondly, that in order to hold 
someone responsible, he/she/... must be identifiable.

Personal opinion: if someone is asked a 
question/clarification/sample-code, particularly as a response to their 
own OP, and does not answer; this is at the least rude, and thus 
disrespectful, or at worst grounds for not bothering with them again - 
hardly a 'community' attitude!
