Players won't get as many ranking points for leaving foes alive, but it is not needed to kill everyone on a level to get S-rank for Ghost playthroughs just most. This acts similarly to the Hostiles Unconcious criterion, though is less significant due to knocking a foe out being seen as a non-lethal act whereas simply not interacting with an enemy will mean nothing. If one accidentally knocks out an enemy instead of killing them, players can finish the job on the unconscious target with their sword or simply toss them into a river to alleviate the issue of them still breathing. It is best to minimize this criterion's value, as the higher it is, the more likely one will be to achieving a Spirit ranking instead of a Ghost one, and, as such, Hostiles Unconcious acts like the inverse of Hostiles Killed. It can be time-consuming to kill every possible enemy on the map, however, killing foes is crucial for not accidentally getting a Spirit ranking instead of a Ghost one. Players will want this number as high as possible due to it increasing one's ranking for Ghost playthroughs.
After this point, one's ranking will likely drop down to A rank and further if one does not complete the level soon. Unfortunately, the game does not give players any feedback on how much Time Elapsed affects ranking, however, a good marker to aim for is to try and complete a mission under 5 minutes for the best results.
Finishing a level quickly is always helpful in getting a higher rank, regardless of one's chosen playstyle.
