You start by saying it's used by the users and then end by saying it'd be abused by the vendors. You can't play both sides as reasons at the same time.

Besides, UserBenchmark is clearly intended to be used by users as well. It's right in the name. There has not been confusion with it, if anything labeling the scores as what they are instead of hiding it under how you want a user to see it is both clearer and avoiding benchmark malpractice - not the other way around.
