this would be very nice for people who are new to chess.com, such as myself, To see there unrated stats, separately from rated stats. 😀😀😀

The problem with playing Unrated is that you have no idea of the strength of the players you are facing so you can't tell if you are improving.
If you play someone who frequently plays unrated, you can't rely on your opponent's rating any more than they can rely on yours.
If you just played rated games and let your rating go where it wants, it will hit bottom and then turn upwards as you learn from your losses and study and start winning a few more games.

The main point of ratings is to help you find good matches, where you have close to an equal chance of winning and losing.
There is no disgrace in having a low rating.
