The diminishing "returns" are already built in into the fixed ELO
difference. Namely, the ELO difference (dE) formula:

  dE=400*log(p/(1-p))

gives:

  p=1/[1+10^(-dE/400)]

which means that for the fixed steps of increasing dE the
corresponding 'win percentage' (p) steps become exponentially
small with number of dE steps.
