I am 100 percent for enabling the stats with a warning as you have stated.
Personally I think the opposition for this from kobo is due to the fact that they want their books to be special, and therefore push the sales of their books from the competitors. Such as Amazon, Kindle, Apple and Google etc.
I don't think that there is really any issues with stats from side loaded kobofied epubs. Again I think this is due to the need to drive sales of their bread and butter.( that said this is just M.O.)
regards
Jack
