Claims of "no downside" are just as subjective.You are making up objections based on nothing but subjective negativity
.... and spotting flaws in proposals is part and parcel of discussing them.
PvP itself has a significant downside that adversely affects some playstyles. The existence of the modes means that PvP is already entirely optional - however only one game mode has an unlimited population and that game mode is PvP enabled.A PvE flag (one that disables PvP) has several significant downsides that would adversely affect the game for some playstyles.
If a PvP flag is not palatable then an Open-PvE game mode might be better in the sense that players playing in it would not be able to be encountered by those wishing PvP.
What would the "points" result in? If it would be an "extra something" for players who engage in PvP then that would be a downside for those who don't flag themselves.A PvP flag (one that enables meaningful PvP) has no downside over what we currently have. Any abuse of the flag would be actions that can already be done in the game anyway, unless I'm missing something
