It may very well help emotionally. As a matter of practicality, we'll probably end up going the other direction and classifying them by nation-states. The objective will be to stimulate competition among nation-states to reduce their atrocities footprints. Of course, there'll be a provision to buy atrocities credits which will be touted as a fund for paying reparations on behalf of smaller nation-states that cannot afford to. It'll be much better than the "human" atrocities quagmire in which everyone is guilty; but, no one is compensating victims (or their surviving families).
