Why not list your location? Is it for safety and/or security? General apathy? None-of-your-business sentiment? Fear?
I don't believe anyone expects precise GPS coordinates. However, is revealing your country of residence too much to ask?
And this also applies to the moderators.

I agree completely. Internet forums are generally so anonymous, since we do not put our names and faces in here, so why not at least give the rest of the world a small reference point so we can better see where your views, or opinions come from. In some cases that can be useful.
