We may not have really verified each others keys in person but when
someone consistently signs with the same key the identity's reputation
grows.

You don't know me but with gpg signatures I verify that this message and
most stuff (commits, tags) in my Github repositories (see the signature)
is produced by the same identity. Someone may have seen me elsewhere,
for example in Debian user mailing list, and I sign with this same key
there too. That's at least some collection of data that makes a
consistent "person" identity, even if an unknown one.
