Agree with your thoughts. When I mention independence, I mean it relative to others in the space whom charge for ratings. Weiss does not (and really cant due to decentralization) do that. However, agree that they are not totally independent as they are charging for this without much transparency (as mentioned in my post). They are just taking advantage of the hype of the crypto space to get some subscription. The risk is letting them have influence on the pricing with little to no disclosure regarding their methodology.
