Default Why don't using "push" for anonymity?

Why don't eliminate the IP of queryhits, and therefore use only "Push" to initiate downloads?, so there is no way to poll Gnet analyzing query trafic to detect big sharers.

Of course a sharer could be located by sending a push and waiting the download, but this would be a lot costly that simply reading queryhits, since any sharer need to be requested one by one.

Additionally a sharer could use any proxy system to relay the file when pushed, so the anonymaty is more complete.
