It does mitigates it to a degree. But IMO if people have applied for
a public team[1] that should be shown on their person page. Clearly
marked as "applied for but not yet approved" of course, but still
shown.

If nothing else it's useful information to spot iconemon-ers (people
who collect team memberships like Pokemon toys) who I've seen too many
times amonst ubuntu-members applicants.
