Incorrect Statistics

Thanks lichess for allowing us to see interesting statistics by hovering over rating categories on our player pages.

Unfortunately, there is a bug with these statistics: when you go to the category of "worst rated defeats" or "best rated victories", some of the games are not rated.
I think "Best Rated Draws" would be more meaningful then "Worst Rated Defeats"
Mr. Thibault sir, what are you thinking about this?
#2 No, what I mean is that some games listed are actually casual games.
@qkxwsm, I had the same "confusion" about an hour or two ago (and even considered starting a feedback topic on it if none existed yet) when I looked at the (probably recent?) /perf/ pages. I agree that the way the the labels are worded, "WORST RATED DEFEATS" and "BEST RATED VICTORIES", is somewhat ambiguous. However, checkmateathlete1122 is right in that the word "rated" refers to our opponents' ratings, not that they are rated (in contrast to casual) game types.

To repeat, "RATED" refers to our opponents' ratings, not the game type.
Ohh. Well that's an unnatural meaning. Plus, I believe that my change would make it better, as often we don't play casual games with the intent to win as we would in rated games.
True, true. Still, I prefer stats that references everything (within a reasonable degree, of course). Might be better if we had something like this:

WORST DEFEATS

-- Rated Games
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)

-- Casual Games
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)

BEST VICTORIES

-- Rated Games
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)

-- Casual Games
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)
-- -- player nick (profile link) + date (game link)

Either way (as is with what we already have or with something like this sample mockup), I believe that removing "RATED" from the headings will avoid the semantic vagueness while retaining the intended meaning.
