Request related to tournaments

There are two things I would like to request.

1. The ranking in the tournament:
If two player have the same points the higher rated player is shown a place higher. I think it should depend on the amount of games so the player with lesser games should be above.

2. Just a tiny thing:
If you look up the stats of a player for the tournament a performance-rating (after at least 5 games were played) would be nice to be added.
The playing level of a tournament.
It is the same rating you would get if started without a rating (if you played enough games).
TPR (tournament performance rating) says on which level you played in this tournament. It depends on average rating of your opponents and your score against them.
e.g.: If there's 190 elo points difference between two players, stronger probably score 75% points in their matches.
If you score 7.5/10 against opponents with average rating e.g. 1500, your TPR is cca 1500+190=1690
But I'm not sure how to calculate TPR on lichess, because this site doesn't use elo rating system.
PR is a USCF rating concept which doesn't apply easily to Glicko-2 because Glicko-2 ratings are two-dimensional (they include RD).

So although PR would be difficult to estimate, one thing that could be estimated is a "par" score for that player -- how many points that player would have been expected to score against their given opposition.
Isn't it possible to approximate the performance by calculating the rating you would have got if you started without a rating?
The same as if you would open a new account or didn't play a game in the category of the tournament.
