From there: "Gavin was in a unique position as we dealt with each other directly while we nurtured Bitcoin to life in 2010. I knew that Gavin would remember the content of those messages and discussions, and would recall our arguments and early interactions."
This was my guess as to why Gavin Andresen believed him. The technical test may not have passed peer review, but better tests can always be given at a latter date. But if Wright could show Andresen copies of communications that Andresen believed had been totally private, then he'd be hard-pressed not to believe Wright was Satoshi.
Unless, that is, someone had eavesdroped on them and Wright got hold of them somehow - or was the eavesdropper. And if it's true Wright worked a lot in IT security over the years, him obtaining other people's emails isn't outside the realms of the possible.
So its his promised "transferring bitcoin from an early block" that'll need to pass Peer Test Number 2 before he'll be (mostly) believed. We will see...
