What I want to discuss here is that among all the naysayers, there are folks who seem to just look down on Wright, thinking that he cannot be Satoshi, because he's a middle-aged clean-shaven normal looking white guy (yes, that description also fits me), and that they expected Satoshi to be some kind of a long-haired pot-smoking pale-faced anarcho-punk with tattoos all over.
Every type of demographic has a type of look. This is well known and can be "reversed" - in other words telling what one is, by just looking at them. It's a subtype of mentalism (cold reading). You can tell things about people by how they look, how they express themselves, how they move, how they act, etc etc. You can classify people, even find out intimate details about their lives.
When people say "oh who gives a fuck how he looks", or "looks don't matter", what they are really saying is "I have no clue how to correlate what I'm seeing so I need other type of data".
The obsession about "more data" is very eloquently described in "Psychology of Intelligence Analysis" by the CIA. To make a long book => short, it says that the obsession of data analysts with more data is ridiculous because the truth is in plain sight most of the time, so they only need to process the data they have in a better manner. Mentalists and others trained in cold-reading would agree and laugh about such an obvious (to them) conclusion.
IT nerds don't look like Wright. People who are involved in computer science complex theoretics like how to solve the Byzantine General problem, don't look like Wright. Heck, even an average class of C programmers don't look like Wright.
Why they don't look like Wright? Because geekiness is a function of time-sacrifice. Time is finite. With 24hrs/day and only so much to focus on within a given day, before taking time to sleep, eat, and do other stuff, you don't have time to develop your extremely complex skills and do all the other things that ordinary humans do. Thus something has to give. Typically, what is viewed as less important, like what other people wear, social relations, etc etc, go out the window first. You don't care about things like "fashion" thus you dress, let's say, in a more ackward way that makes you stand out. You might also develop high degree of introversion which in turn will lead to myopia which will mean that you'll need glasses. Myopia / short-sightedness, is not a function of biology, but rather a function of the mind. Most geeks/nerds are short-sighted and highly introverted. Geniuses will typically exhibit some anomalous characteristics which is a result of the time-scarcity equation. You can't do everything within finite time constraints and it will *show*.
In this regard (I'm not mentioning other things like forging "proofs"), Wright is a highly anomalous Satoshi candidate. He is also highly anomalous for one other reason. He seems to be trained in controlling his facial expressions and posture. This is intelligence level stuff that is used on political leaders (and most typically fail at their "lessons" - leaking all sort of information through their body language - again a consequence of finite time / you can't teach a politician right away what it takes intelligence operatives years of training).
