>The content of the post should be enough to demonstrate expertise.

This is ridiculous because expertise, understood as great learning relative to context, cannot in the first place be exhibited in a singular post, it is a property exhibited by a person consistently over time. Words do not "have" expertise, posts do not "have" expertise, people do. When you ascribe expertise to textual content you are effectively ascribing expertise to the person who wrote it, because it would be nonsensical to say that a word, paragraph, post, etc, has great learning.

And people exhibit their expertise through things like posts consistently over time. A person might post something very knowledge on a subject one day then something incredibly stupid the next, no-one would say that person has expertise. We say that a person has expertise when they consistently show their great learning. We cannot reliably ascribe said expertise to said person without being able to identify them. In order to do this we need a means of identification. A tripcode is a sufficient but not necessary means of identification, other possible forms of identification would be sufficient, and if not as efficient, then functionally equivalent (e.g. timestamps).
