I think saying "these two individuals" is meant to point up the fact that they aren't representing a bloc or group or organization in the movement; they are individuals. I don't see it as depersonalizing. People should focus on the core debate here, and not get distracted going down every avenue of attack against the WMF that seems slightly plausible. Jones Day is just a major, blue chip law firm with expertise in this area. Calling two people "two individuals" is not a deeply personal slight.
