Post #1 says "You could say the same about any case involving any cause of action. Why not anonymise the defendant too? "

A good point. Why should anonymity not apply to ALL defendants in criminal cases? That really should apply invariably prior to charge; and it might be also appropriate if it were the default rule (to be set-aside only if a Court so orders) until the defendant is actually convicted.
