There's no evidence of what percentage of these uploaders would be
willing to provide a confirmed email address if required to do so.
There are many editors who entered an email address ages ago before
confirmation was required, and now do not have a confirmed email
address because of this. Despite sitenotices, most have probably not
gone and fixed the problem, since there's been no pressing personal
need to do so.
