The rankings don't change if you divide everyone's damage by the same constant number (time), and by extension, the ratio you obtain is not useful when you could just look at the actual damage done instead.
True, true. If people know what's going on with the numbers they won't need it.

Though it'd be a little perk for someone checking the total damage done.
