Perhaps the poster is referring to the legality of creating an ORCID on behalf 
of the collaborator?
That is how I interpreted it - but perhaps I over-interpreted...

Another thing that came to my mind, not everyone has to be an author of the PDB 
structure. Often all the authors of the corresponding paper are also on the PDB 
entry, and there is nothing wrong with that, but if a (non-crystallographer?) 
collaborator really doesn't want an ORCID, he or she doesn't have to be an 
author of the PDB entry.
