I don’t see any bug here, only things which might be done/differently.

I would love if `show email on profile:` were expanded to the admin page. That would satisfy my OP quite well.

Then if this were carried out, I’d have to spend a _lot_ less time on each person.

I’d love to see Full Name on the admin page, and editable, please.
