If 'they' can allow Monobook to be used by some people solely on their IP or other geographical location and others are blocked on those grounds, it is a form of discrimination.

As I said above 'Wikipedia-style layouts' do appear to be the norm across the wikiverse, so some compromise could be worked out.

Many Wikians use pen names - so the connection could be forgotten (closing the account and 'changing the patterns' of IP use and language style on re-signing in etc): what about the 'real people' being described on Wikia pages ('X said something off the record' etc)?
