Is there\Will there be a feature added to Stadia which allows you to see data about your connection?

In a world with a plethora of protocols/devices/infrastructures which allow internet access, it would be nice to get exact latency/bandwidth data in the app or on the platform to judge which locations/connections/ISPs gets you your best results. The biggest appeal of Stadia for me is the "play anywhere" concept, but not all devices/infrastructures were created equally. Being able to determine the latency and quality of your current connection would be a great help to figure out which way (currently) plays best.

Looks like there will be some visual indicators but not the hard numbers necessarilly.

Bandwidth, data usage, and stream quality

When I was testing Project Stream, I remember this was one of the most requested feature (to be able to monitor your exact data usage, latency, ping). Let' see if actually makes it to this release.

Honestly I don't expect it.  They don't want people thinking about it.  Seeing a screen full of bad stats would likely just make people expect it to be bad, when in fact, it may still play fine or well enough that they wouldn't have noticed otherwise.

At the end of the day all that matters is if the experience is good enough for the player or not, and statistics on the UI won't really change things.
