Even if exposing player standings for d-scan was desirable from game design perspective, CCP would most likely not do it, because of the server load added to each d-scan, caused by looking up each hit and applying your standings to them.

Game designers like it when players are 50/50 that any feature is too good or too bad. They know something is wrong with their design when 90+ percent of players agree on something.
