Yes I think so too though I think time zone is going to be the major
one so it can be used to ascertain a person's location in lieu of
having the IP (which is why I asked about it). I think in some cases
it could possibly be used as additional piece in figuring out socks
though by itself it's not going to mean much.

BTW, since we were wondering about identity of Loosemark before - his
pattern looks a lot like Molobo and Poeticbent (as well as other
Polish editors like Space Cadet and Witkacy)  but also Matthead (who I
think is in Eastern Germany).

In general things like this are useful for noticing any "red flags" -
some really weird results that jump out - but by themselves are only
mildly suggestive.
