I love to GV and do Jabo missions vs GVs, get used to it.  Being good at one helps in the other.

Because there are tools in the DA that pick and run to get their names in lights; this is against the spirit of the DA.

That would take all but 10 seconds to implement, but along with that you will lose all kill and assist messages.  I like the idea of removing the name in lights, but it has potential to cause other problems.  Especially when you no longer get a system message identifying who was just griefing you.

No it doesn't.  Those kill messages in the MA are as useless as using score/rank to determine who the top pilots are.  All the system messages say is so and so killed so many aircraft, it doesn't indicate how those aircraft were destroyed.  They could have been vulched, picked, ganged, proxies, etc. 

AW's system had it best, all you saw was "XXX shot down" as a system message and "A kill has been recorded" on your front end.  No system message for landing a successful flight, so no egos to inflate.

How about it gone all together?

Goto Google and type in "French military victories", then hit "I'm feeling lucky".
Here lie these men on this sun scoured atoll,
The wind for their watcher, the wave for their shroud,
Where palm and pandanus shall whisper forever,
A requiem fitting for heroes
