I think it's a good enough criteria. If there's somebody involved that
doesn't have an account and wants to be elected, getting an account
isn't a very high bar. If there's somebody *not* involved who wants to
be elected, getting an account isn't going to change the fact that none
of us recognize them. Sure, it's arbitrary, but it's not terrible.
