I agree with the second paragraph of this comment.
Regarding the third paragraph,
In this post, the poster writes “Therefore, I feel comfortable questioning these grants using burner accounts,” which suggests in fact that they do have multiple burner accounts.
In my specific case,
I acknowledged in the post that I previously used a burner two years ago for whose password I did not save (due it being a burner) and therefore found myself logged out of. I would have used the same burner otherwise.
I could flip this around and say that I don’t have other active burners because fact that my next bullet-point in the post was “I’ll do some of that now” with me proceeding to comment on recent grants in the same post under the same burner instead of making a different post with a different burner.
The use of the plural term “burner accounts” is me talking about burner accounts in the abstract rather than me saying I have multiple burner accounts.
My thinking has evolved over the past two years since making the post, and I think it adds little value to this post to establish the link.
I would think differently had I carried on using that burner account, and people could read many posts showing how my thinking has evolved (which would instead turn it into a pseudonym instead of a burner), but a two-year gap doesn’t show any evolution in thought.
Edit: I’m aware this discredits my previous statement of, “I would have used the same burner otherwise”, but that statement was made before I read that previous post.

Can you name the prior burner to establish a link?
I just looked up the post I made back then.

Understandable, but you should edit your prior comment and put that assertion in strikeout text.
