You must have missed my point I think.
Even if this is so, which I don't think it is, but lets assume it, then nothing
will prevent you from using players with rating: 2900, 3000, 3100, 3200 etc.
This sequence of players can probably be constructed by the one who constructed
the perfect player (right?). Now we just sit back and watch this sequence
converge to the perfect player's rating. At no point will we hit the 750 elo
barrier (if there is such a barrier), so the elo scale should work.
