So I've been thinking. With some of the names of (for lack of a better term) "side characters" that have been popping up lately (or more likely decades) in big news stories, but never actually talk to anyone. How many might be made up or composite identities meant to provide a sort of coded signal to others in the know?

I mean I've seen the theory floated that Strozk and Page might be composites. Especially as they texted more times a day than any adults would, and Lisa Page is similar to "Lease a page"

But you also have shit like "Reality Winner"
