It may also be that points bestowed before one breaks 20 begin to count "retroactively" once their originator breaks 20. Can anyone confirm or deny whether it works that way? If it does, that'd provide a good reason to continue to give reputation points even when one knows one is under 20.
I'm sorry it had to come to the point of identifying everyone (there is something to be said for anonymous feedback, as with comment/survey cards and the like) but if it was a necessary step, so be it.
