Hi Mark!
Your arguments look pretty convincing. But be prepared to more objections (they
are not my objections but I am sure they will eventually arise):
-What is important is the rating of the player at the time she/he gets the
grandmaster title. Averaging this may require a phenomenal amount of work, as
you have to find some old ratings over a huge time period. Your opponents may
hope that you do not have the time and energy to collect this data.
-The computers have not played enough games. For some programs this is true, but
the most active against humans should have enough or almost enough games to meet
the FIDE requirements for humans (and when a human gets the GM title nobody
complains about statistical uncertainty due to the small number of games
played).
José.
