Proof that Satoshi was DPR wouldn't be a bad thing for Bitcoin; there's way too many people in this community who treat every word and every decision made by Satoshi as gospel rather than evaluating ideas on their own merits.
I always thought that was a possibility. If I recall correctly, Silk Road showed up ~1 Month after Satoshi disappeared. (Read it somewhere, but don't find it any more)
Although this would be a massive Press disaster.
