Number of Accounts
Although I have closed WEB-1227, I'm still confused:
Is the number of accounts really limited to 5 per household? What about households with more than 5 (potential) users? (Remember you must not share accounts.) What about open source developers who need several accounts for test purposes? Also, if you can have at most 5 accounts in total (all account types; except you have several households, of course), how could you possibly create an "army" of basic accounts as mentioned at What does it cost to create additional Basic accounts?? The German translation says 5 per email address, though this doesn't make much more sense (if you want a limitation at all), because email addresses are essentially available for free in arbitrary numbers, if you don't care about the domain (or even have your own one).
