Suppose the author used a pen name. Common enough. Or another ambiguous name. Someone discovers their work 10 or 20 or 50 years later, how do they identify the author and whether they're still alive?

Suppose it's a magazine and some of the contributors used pen names. Someone's trying to republish their archives 10 or 20 or 50 years later, how are they to know if they can post each issue?
