I had a thought and didn't make it clear, added the last sentence that I'm referring to the new system allowing for anonymous reviews. That combined with publish before review is making a new system catered to malicious business interests. Tobacco companies would just love this system.

Now the idea of making the whole process more visible to a wider audience? Yeah, that could be a benefit.
