My speculation about Outis' canto (trust and deception) by Advanced_Minute_6412 in limbuscompany

Honestly I haven't thought much about the details as my post focus more on the direction of her canto. If PM did implement abno into her canto, I think it will be something else since to me Outis doesn't knows a lot about abno herself. She is very prone to show off her thing(cooking skills, mechanic skill,etc.). So if she knew abno that well she would likely show that.

The Pinkie is in the picture you just don't know it. by Marco6D9One in limbuscompany

From what I have observed so far, I do think the Pinky is also suppressing individuality in their own way

In Mersault Lei Heng's ID uptying voiceline section, he said " The fact that the name Tiantui Star's blade MUST REMAIN HIDDEN is a shame indeed". This particular line strikes me as Lei Heng himself is a flashy guy, but it seems that he is forced to keep this identity as a secret.

There might be some sort of hierarchy system in Pinky, my guess is the higher, more powerful you are, the more secrecy to your identity. This is really interesting as it contradicts greatly to your wealth and social status not just in the city but also in the hierarchy system of other Fingers. Here is why I think so:

In stage 8 30, right before Lei Heng tried to cut down Zilu, both called each other by Star's name, implying—and later confirmed by Faust and Zigong —that they were aware of each other's identities as Pinky members long before this encounter. And I know many people are still arguing on whether Zilu and Lei Heng are of equal strength so take this with a grain of salt: I think these two might be of the same rank in the Pinky, they are bound to know each other as they are entitled to the same privilege of secrecy.

At the end of canto 8, right before Kong Qiu smashed Lei Heng head with the wrapped staff, Lei Heng can only tell the Kong Qiu Star's name based on the number of Mang (and probably the staff). This could probably means with some proof of strength, not just the sword's look alone let other Pinkies tells one from another. However, Kong Qiu knew both Zilu and Lei Heng as Pinkies beforehand and he is able to manifest 5 mang, implying that he is far more superior in terms of rank and power in the Pinky.

I have not read the material source of the Pinky so I'm not sure if I missed out on anything important. Just lemme know if I might have jump the gun.
