I was going to say that that doesn't fit with the list, but not only can I see the argument that transparency is a moral imperative for politicians, I'm actually in favour of it.
A non-moral argument I left off the list is decreasing returns. Hasn't anything from the past 50 years of economic research trickled down into the brains of the people responsible for our public finances?
