My large corporate employer is far larger than yours and doesn't require
this sort of idiocy.

The *only* cases I'm aware of where this sort of thing is even close to
required is a statement of business identity in some European countries.

This is interesting, seeing I do not have a corporate employer.

My point was that in a large corporation, it is generally an unproductive activity or a waste of time for plebs to petition corporate / head office for a change in policies such as these.

Given that it may be the original post quoted above was more about saying "I don't work for a stupid corporation, unlike you" ie yet another tedious status display. 

Also I studied law for a few years and given the complexities of these things, I try to avoid being a bush lawyer.
