It is not the same package and so it does not provide the same features.

I happen to have a membership at that site. I feel safe enough myself. However, I do see both sides. Jeff, you could create a throwaway account like the author mentioned. That would satisfy both of you and you don't even have to check it. Or you could use it as a spam catcher. You can get free email accounts easily.

I wouldn't expect you to agree. I've seen this argument played out elsewhere and I don't imagine my feelings on it will much matter to you or anyone else here. From what I can tell, it's largely a "because I can" effort, so I won't get into a point-by-point argument of where we disagree.
Thankfully, most open source developers, and most open source-oriented sites, take a completely different approach.
