I have a theory.
If google knows about all links to your website and google indexes only 30% leaving 70% not indexed, would google consider the link profile a bad one.

As opposed to a site that has say 70% indexed and 30% not indexed.

I wonder if google uses this as a ranking factor, ie total amount of links indexed versus non indexed.

If google leaves 70% not indexed, it may consider this as a spam profile??

Which is the time frame from the link insertion you are using to get this ratio?

now let me throw something out there that will mess up your logic: some links do not show up when you search in google, but do show up in google search console (your backlink report)!!!!! now go figure the logic behind that!

Sometimes there comes bug when your page is non indexed but it is cached

Like when you google search your URL : http://example.com/bbbbb <-- it is not in google search that means it is not indexed

but search this --> cache:http://example.com/bbbbb if the page is cached then it has value

But if both these searches give no result then it is of no use

What I was trying to highlight is this.

I know that if a link is not indexef it's ignored by google.

However I'm thinking out of all the links google crawls relating to 1 money site, if google decides not to index 70% of the links it finds to 1 money site, and remember they are not indexed, because google has seen these links, I wonder if google then thinks, wow 70% of the links are spammy, so therefore I will say the backlinks profile is crap.
