The change is a very small addition to just looking at someone's comment/post history and seeing if they've posted recently.
If someone knows your username, they can already tell whether you're currently active. A little green dot (or no information if you opt out) doesn't actually change much.
If Reddit had been created with this flag originally, no one would bat an eye.
