Unclear design: looks like you can rate your own collections

When you open one of your own collections, the rating widget looks and behaves the same as it does on other people's collections. This is is confusing because it looks like you can rate your own collection. I tested it because it seemed weird to me that this might be possible, and got a message saying that you can't rate your own collection.

This makes no sense to me. Instead of displaying that message when someone clicks on the rating widget, wouldn't it be better to avoid this situation altogether? By displaying the rating without the animation and apparent clickability you would make it clear that you can't interact with it when you are on one of your own collections.
