achow101 is the best nominee to this list, he can accurately point out and correct mistakes from the member's replies and posts in the D&TD Board.
Shouldn't he then also get the Bitcoin Core developer badge?

This badge refer to Bitcoin-Qt core developer, right? And achow101 one of on the list:

https://bitcoin.org/en/development

But I can see that badge on achow101's profile, even in in Dev&Tech. Can it be disabled?



Edit:

It's clear enough, didn't all of the core developer got those badge.



Bitcoin expertDev&Tech only. People with this badge know enough about the Bitcoin network to reimplement something very like it from scratch. They are capable of intelligently discussing the Bitcoin network: current protocol, possible attacks, proposed changes, etc. Criteria: Recommendation by an existing Bitcoin expert or core dev and approval by a forum administrator.
Bitcoin-Qt core developer Dev&Tech only. These are the core developers of Satoshi's Bitcoin client. They are listed here. Core developers are among the top contributors to Bitcoin-Qt, and they are all bitcoin experts, though they don't also get that badge.
