On lichess rating ranks.

Why does my rank on lichess not show on my profile? I've seen players with ratings lower than mine and they have that thing that says, "Rank: XXXXXX." Do you need to play a certain number of games or rated opponents?
rating deviation has to be lower than 75 if u want ranking

For variants, you need your rating deviation below 65. For standard chess, 75...

like this for example, plus you guys may remember that old username ;)

The less you play, the higher the deviation number goes up and you get removed from rankings and closer to a "?" rating...

So basically this is included to eliminate players from the leaderboard that are considered inactive?
