I think that people should be given the choice whether they want to participate in an environment with that sort of tool or not. There are a lot of other ways for people to whom identifying who is fronting is important to show that, such as signing a name/emoji/letter at the end of their messages, changing their name/nickname, or just telling the person they're talking to that x part/alter/etc is fronting.
I am glad that things like Pluralkit exist for people to be able to do this if they wish, but I personally do not feel comfortable in any server where there is something like pluralkit, because it puts a lot of undue pressure to "prove" I am switching, or to always identify who is fronting, which to me can be very private information. There's often a lot of pressure on people with DID to "identify who's fronting" all the time, which can be difficult, emotionally taxing, vulnerable, scary, and sometimes impossible to do. As someone diagnosed with DID (though I acknowledge I am not the entire audience of this feature) this would be incredibly detrimental for me.
