I don't understand that comment - realistic to what - humans? - there are no
humans  in the SSDF pool - so why it should b e adjusted ..it is what it is.
The fact that it may not appaear to coincide with FIDE ratings is better - since
they are clearly not meant to be intermingled.  If you make them appear to be
"realistic" then people may naturally assume SSDF=FIDE - but in reality the two
shall never meet ....totally different rating pools
