The metaverse will be a troll’s paradise without controls on identity and movement within. Doesn’t take very many trolls to have a large impact, and there is a large number in the world.

Just don’t expect “psychological safety”. Overall, you may be right. But it’s another two-edged sword lying around.

You can shield yourself from others as much as you want, but that is on you alone. Especially for anything that happens online, you can quickly recuse yourself. If you are a public persona in some form, the rules change. But even then a cut is far easier than anything more relating to the real world.
