Whatever about now but back in 2009/2010 Satoshi would have been arrested for sure
and "he" knew the implications of releasing Bitcoin into the wild.
I’m curious to hear why you think Satoshi would have been arrested back in 2009 or 2010 if he had made his identity public.

Keep in mind that in those early days, bitcoin was used by only a handful of cypherpunk enthusiasts, and its price was very close to zero. It wasn’t a threat to anyone.
