Why not show ELO ratings for the daily puzzle?

I enjoy the daily puzzle and like that they are supposed to get harder as the week goes on, Monday easiest and Sunday hardest. I propose it would be informative and be pedagogical useful, if each daily puzzle was presented along with its assigned ELO rating. Maybe even show links (after it is solved) to similar puzzles if they exist in the puzzle database.

I agree. report your comment/concern.

I’d like to get some response or feed back from a site moderator about my suggestion. I don’t see any downside from it.

At the least, the ELO rating of the puzzle could be discussed in the video that accompanies the daily puzzle after it is solved.

This is a fine suggestion. The site has a puzzle statistics page which include information about the rating of the puzzle, its solve rate, how many times it has been played etc. Undoubtedly the daily puzzle is taken from the pool of existing puzzles already on the site, therefore it has one of these pages, but com has elected not to give any option to access it from the daily puzzle page.

They have to initially rate the puzzles for them to determine their ratings as people solve them in real time.

You can't really give an ELO to puzzles to be honest. Every player regardless of skill can solve it, it's only the solve time that changes. What they could do is judge your ELO based on how much time you spent on it.
