Okay, I respectfully disagree and think it would be a good thing to add to the program.
(1) Some players simply won't notice if you've been playing tighter or looser, especially if they haven't played you for a few weeks.
I sometimes know who is using PT and who is not.
Some of them are even stupid enough to keep a poker journal so that I can read about how they use PT3 etc.
(2) Some players datamine (whether or not it's against a site's terms and conditions) so they'll have extra data on you and you won't have it on them.
Not possible on my site, I think.
(3) A player might have observed you at a table by opening it and watching before they sat down (or while waiting for the blinds to get to them) and since they weren't dealt into those hands, we would miss that data.
Thats just a few hands, and on my low stakes, something my opps would never have the NRJ to do.
(4) A player may change his own style for reasons unrelated to your play (e.g. he's now watching coaching videos and trying some stuff out) but you might think he's adjusting and that could end up being problematic.
Very true, but then again that may then be used as an argument for not keeping stats on your opponents at all.
