I am not sure if It's a good idea from me to leave a neutral feedback on hunnyfinance profile for future reference. What do you think, folks?

It's probably not enough evidence to link these two accounts beyond reasonable doubt, but I don't see any harm in leaving them neutral feedback for future reference.
The Trust page of another user is not a dairy taking place for others. logfiles can easily keep a note for himself using Ninjastic's (TryNinja) users note extension: [Script] BitcoinTalk User Notes

On the contrary, since the trust system is designed for, to quote theymos, "getting a general idea of someone's trade history and trustworthiness in one convenient location" [reference], and taking into account the evidence presented by Ratimov, it makes perfect sense for a neutral tag with a reference to this thread. After all, while "user notes script" may be useful for taking personal notes, it is in no way a substitute for a proper-ish trust system when it comes to making people feel safe while engaging in transactions with questionable characters.

These days I see too many neutral tags which actually can not be considered as neutral but a way to underestimate others. Most of it are given to achieve two agenda:
1. Of course to underestimate the users who they do not like
2. To build up their own reputation proving that they are always active to find wrong doings.

Both are bad since it's all are in personal level.

That may be so, and there is even a saying about doing the right thing for the wrong reasons, however, I don't see any of these points as valid arguments against leaving the neutral tag in this case.
