I was thinking of a scenario: two players, both start at lets say 1200 elo. They play lots and lots of games only with each other and player A only loses and player B only wins. Eventually player A will have a very low elo and the player b will have a GM elo.
So I'm kind of confused that even though player B might have an elo of Magnus Carlsen, it doesn't actually mean that the player actually is as good as Magnus Carlsen. Or did I misunderstood something?
At a certain point, the difference in ratings will be enough that the higher rated player will not get rating increases.
