Keeping it individual without public announced maximum embargo time would also help prevent folks from jumping to 0daying everything per default:)
However, to me it is pure "Security by Obscurity" in a bit different wording. It never worked. Simply think that somebody else knows the secret and with your help continues using that.
I think you misunderstand the parent post. Nobody is proposing that the embargo period for any _particular_ issue be secret. The proposal in the parent post was to not have a public general embargo policy for _all_ issues present & future. -- Please don't Cc: me privately on mailing lists and Usenet, if you also post the followup to the list or newsgroup.
