The issue of should you be allowed to be anonymous is a slightly
different debate.  For now the policy is you need correct data and the
issue is how to mitigate potential loss of a domain and purchase by
someone else (which is far worse).

I agree putting on hold is not without consequences and there should
be a minimum of three attempts to contact the registrant.
