But who ensures it isn't? Management who are the ones inherently attracted to having the metric to use? The ones who are able to withstand that pressure and not touch the information are likely the ones would could see the information without using it as a stick.

I guess upper management could enforce the separation on a level lower management could not override, but I would assume such cases are rare.

The solution is to stop blaming the methodology for the failures of management, and just accept that bureaucracy breeds mediocrity. Corporations grow into bureaucracy, inevitably. Choose accordingly when evaluating potential employers. Keep this in mind when running a business.
