       hidden accounts

       Wows commnutiy beleives that the truth becaomes truth by various
       factors, like Stats, belonging to a clan, having a hidden
       account, etc.
       For example if you say that 2+2 is 4 then Wows commnutiy doesn't
       take it as truth if your account TeamStats are not publicly
       visible, or if you are clanless, or even if your body's skin
       color is black.

       Accounts are hidden because Wows community religion.
       Hidden account argument is popular and based on the belief that
       Stats determine truth in opinions.
       Irony is that the stats hiding ones themselves too behave
       according to Stats religion, for example they value Stats
       themselves too and would use it as an argument if anyone has
       lower Stats than themselves.
       It is questionable why to provide at all a functionality to hide
       stats,
       How it should benefit anything. If it benefits by lowering
       toxicity then the Stats itself are the source of toxicity and
       Handle that source issue instead. Either don't produce any stats
       at all if they are so toxic, or make by default all stats
       hidden, etc.
       If one hides stats to get a tactical edge then they really don't
       get any. Enemies just shoot anyone without any prioritisation.
       If in Golds I have a Top clan BB player then I don't prioritise
       ever him over DD targets.
       Hiding religious soup data is an indicator that the community is
       unhealthy.
