So its really not a fair and level playing ground. Either all

Note that there are arguments that go the other way - but most of
those could somewhat be cured by the non-public candidate making
things public. I'm not arguing that making candidacy public is the
way to go - and in fact I see more problems that not with going that
way, but I am arguing that a voluntary approach such as Pete is
recommending is worse than either of the two alternatives.
I will repeat that the current state of affairs is neither "all" nor
"none". RFC 3777 has no rule in this regard; it is currently
voluntary. And some people have always disclosed. So I'm simply
suggesting that we voluntarily get closer to "all" and start
encouraging the "cultural sophistication" Leslie talked about.
