It's really easy to read things into the witty stuff we can dream up to put on the bottom of a plate.
The plate makers name doesn't have to be highly visible just on there. It should also have the post code included.

I've had a few sets made up recently for the family cars at Halfords, the makers details are tiny and can't be read unless you're really looking. (lettering is almost the same colour as the background).
It doesn't have to be in bold black across the bottom, they're just trying ot get a free advert out there.

Am I reading the BS correctly: No other markings surely means no one-liners. Also, you could interpret the BS so that the manufacturers name/post code could be on the none-visible side, engraved for instance. Doesn't say it has o be visible at same time as registration.
WRT to the "The bike in front is still ....in front", it was intended as a subtle reference to the avatar. But taking the physche interpretation I would expect that particular car driver to have a one liner along the lines of "I'm in front because I'm a f***in' idiot"
