We already have all the tools (would they be allowed by the ToS or not) to do everything you said:
- We can check people's performances live with third party softwares.
- We can check their history in great details on a third party website.
- We can kick pretty much anyone by simply calling the "differences in playstyle" excuse.
- We can remove anyone from a PF without any kind of justification.
- We have a tool showing every recent players we played with, which allows for easy black listing.
- We have Stone Sky Sea and Stormblood's equivalent that can be used without any kind of third party tools to roughly check someone's performances.

It'd be absurd to think that giving the players some metrics about a run they just did would open the floodgates for shunning and name shaming all over the place. It'd most likely not change anything, or at least it won't be worse that what we have now. If you do a random DF dungeon and get promped such a window, chances are people will forget about it a few seconds after closing it. Exacly like any Frontlines game.

Besides, the stance we're hearing from SE is mostly in regards to inbuilt DPS meters. Otherwise they wouldn't have given us these tables we see at the end of a PvP game to begin with. Also, I don't know why you think that showing someone's performances in PvP is different than doing it in PvE. You can do some shunning and name shaming regardless, which would also impact them in PvE.

Keep in mind that showing performances at the end of a run doesn't mean allowing witch hunting, name shaming and discrimination more than it currently is.
