Surfaced by the 2026-08-13 student-data-inventory audit.

routes/gamification.py:161–234 exposes decrypted display name, level, XP and streak on the leaderboard, with profile_visibility as the only gate. Worth an explicit decision: is the leaderboard opt-in, opt-out, or pseudonymous? Right now a student who never thought about it is on a public-ish board with their real name.
