I believe Facebook didn't show this to protect the user. Facebook allows us to filter the people/pages we follow for a better Facebook experience or better newsfeed. Some people are just full of negativity or full of toxic posts on their fb accounts and you can choose to unfollow and they will not be alerted of that decision. Unless if they will manually monitor all their hundreds or thousand followers :)
professional dashboard is available for those who are managing their facebook pages. If you have a page, just switch from your main profile to your facebook page. :)
