This may be true, because certain characters with known identities should have scores higher than those who actually have hero flags, based on observable data. Either some serious regression to the mean is taking place and the typical SK character has gotten much less heroic since the system rolled out, or a line-item veto of hero candidates is in place. Or, perhaps, our data isn't reliable. But if we're not going to be given more reliable data, we're forced to either mindlessly accept whatever's displayed or to do the best with what we've got. Being mindful isn't against any rule, so.

If you mean that players have biases and reward their inner clique, this is 100% true.

Just reference where Opey said that he liked my hellion Ksenia until he found out who played her.
