Chinese app offers map of "deadbeat debtors" near you

Because for all you want to say that the technocrats of the Chinese government are testing to make it work right, they have a value they are trying to change “the number of debtors with late payments”. Any attempt to restrict that value magically to those with no acceptable reason to be late must, definitionally, say that anybody who gets their debt current was able to pay.

I don’t think the government really gives a shit about whether they pay, or stigma, or anything else, it’s just another handle for control.
