He will also receive no mail from me, because i prefer to mail from my
own mail user agent, and not from webforms with a captcha, which have
their own set of privacy concerns in common implementations, not to
mention UI/UX issues. :P

Plus, how does Bob reply to any of his mail?  Does his reply use an
e-mail address?  What stops one recipient from publishing his e-mail
address?

But this all seems like quite a digression: how is this an argument
about which form to use for publication of the OPENPGPKEY record?
