......I'm picking up a sense that Mr. bearded yellow t-shirt is .........
And I probably missed it in this thread, but is the presenter Cyrus?

I will leave your other points without necessarily commenting upon them - but I am drawn to this idea of Mr. Bearded yellow t-shirt versus your inquiry about his identity and also whether it matches with Cyrus... hahahahaha
I suppose that "we" could keep guessing who are these peeps?
And in some sense it would be good to know, or at least if the presenter (or anyone who might be identified) might have an identity, whether fictional or not... or whether matching up with a forum identity or not.. or maybe even some made up identity in this context that might be a different identity in another context.
So in some sense, I am also in wanting of some kind of further identity, beyond (and besides) "Mr. Bearded yellow t-shirt"... Maybe, that's theymos himself? .hahahahaha. and surely part of the difficulties in which we have forum identities that may or may not be tied to real world identities, and might be discoverable and there might be varying desires in regards to how much out of the closet that any of us might be or how we might even identify in terms of gender or other real world versus fictional aspects, and even with satoshi we have sometimes references of the plural.. which is not necessarily inaccurate to assign a plural to an unknown, but it would not be fair to proclaim that "Mr. Bearded yellow t-shirt" might be a plural when he appears to be a he.. and also that there could be some resistance to even want to take complete credit for the production, which many times these kinds of products take a team to pull together, even though the work and the credits are not always equally shared.. but whatelse is new in the "real world."
Actually, I cannot recall whether "Mr. Bearded yellow t-shirt" had ever ascribed himself an identity.. which maybe makes it more difficult to be humorous too.. when there are some difficulties figuring out the identity or the history or the context, and even with the forum itself, many of us have differing experiences, so we do not necessarily see it the same, and we might resist some of the kinds of messages or the generalizations that might be attempted to be ascribed to what is happening or who the various members (contributors) might be and their relative level of importance (or lack thereof) in adding to the experiences of other forum members.
