If your email address is secret, then you can't participate in Emacs
development.  So I think the first consideration is irrelevant.

The second is true, but this information is for Emacs developers who
want to know where bugs should be reassigned.  These people presumably
have an updated Emacs, so it isn't particularly relevant for them,
either.
