Describe the bug
hidden mutuals are counted as mutual friends in the chart, clogging up space and making it seem as though there are a ton of people who also have "Hidden Mutual" as a friend

To Reproduce

  1. friend someone who has a mutual friend with you that disabled sharing this statistic
  2. generate the friend network chart
  3. "Hidden Mutual" will show up in the chart

Expected behavior
i'd expect hidden connections to not be counted in the friend network

however, i do think there's some merit to showing that you have connections through a hidden mutual, so perhaps a toggle may be useful here
