Addresses aren't identities.
Let's not get pedantic. An address is something that can be used to identify an account, which could be used as an identity. That's how social security numbers, driver's licenses and the like work.
No.
An address does not identify an account.

Side note: social security numbers are also not to be used for identity purposes.
Of course an address identifies an account. That's what the whole blockchain is, a list of accounts and who owns what.

If you're just going to troll, I'd rather you not do this on this thread.
No, perhaps you should learn how bitcoin works before trying to extend it with functionality that mostly already exists anyway... sigh
