It may have been a poor choice of words (British/American usage
difference maybe?).  I meant that someone leaving off the names is being
less thorough than is possible, not that they are wrong in so doing.  In
retrospect, "meticulous" ("marked by extreme or excessive care in the
consideration or treatment of details") would have been a better choice.
