If the intent is to help readers verify the story, surely an identifier for the court case would be more useful. However, the article does not explicitly identify the case (Citibank NA v Brigade Capital Management, 20-CV-6539). It does at least name the Judge (Jesse Furman) and includes a link to a "Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law" PDF document from courtlistener.com which identifies the court case as well as the identities of the two individuals named in the article. I hope that link stays operational for the sake of anyone who intends to actually verify the article.

If the intent is to just provide the reader with more relevant information, surely the identity of the development firm behind Flexcube would be more relevant. Again, that information is conspicuously absent. It seems Flexcube was developed and distributed by Oracle.

If this sort of behavior is the result of "journalistic standards", then maybe it's time for those standards to be revised.

Couldn't they have used short names or pseudonyms? Those who want to trace and verify can always contact the paper for actual details
