Oh, is that why they only listed the initials of the contributors in their blog post? The plot thickens!

That's a pretty weird detail of this. Anthropic don't usually do that - other posts have named the contributors in full, for example:

The politics of AI are getting pretty heated and I suspect engineers at key companies are increasingly reticent to get doxxed and harassed.
