Indeed not.  It’s a measure against a recent influx of spammers/scammers/phishers
on the website.
It’s very annoying and not welcoming to new users

No, they won't publish that info because then all the scammers would learn
how long an account had to ripen before they could phish with it.

I'd be curious to learn this though!
