You're discounting the fact that you would also not be ranked above the professional boxers in Madison Square Garden on a list of "Top 15 Boxers."
I am not discounting the fact, I am stating that I would never have anything to do with the "Top 15 Boxers.".
I am leaving it to the reader to determine how the analogy may be playing out in this game.
I could care less about the 1-5% players that manipulate lower rankings for their own benefit to win a ribbon than the alternative of putting all players on an "equal" basis thus causing a lot more uneven matches to a wider range of players. If the false rankings affect 1-200 people that is better than affecting hundreds to thousands more. Even in the real world your worth can be manipulated by the perception of what was accomplished not by a true unbiased universally accepted system of worth. Etc Etc Etc
