(If you were hiding rep to avoiding being judged for your point value, you were still being judged for not showing your point value... )

I'm not really trying to say that this is totally unreasonable... but it is also unfortunate.
Well maybe some people were hiding it Dragon Ball Z style. "This isn't my true power...." *goes super saiyan*
