If you are going to combine different types of Tournaments, such as arena and speed tournaments, into one rating, then why don't you combine all versions of the game into one rating?
You are combining speed tournaments, experience tournaments, skeleton tournaments, and more, and they all have different numbers and compositions of participants... That's why I decided to add this type of tournament to the mix. And what's wrong with that? AmberSoler's system handles this, more or less... Yours doesn't...
And if you want to say that these tournaments cannot be compared, then you would be right... but only partially, because you can't compare different types of tournaments at all! As I have written about many times! Tournaments can only be compared to each other if several conditions are met (I have already written about them).

By the way, have you noticed that if you compare speed tournaments and tournaments for collecting something (experience or skeletons) using your system, it is much more advantageous for outsiders to participate in the collection tournaments, because the gap between the leader and the outsider is not as large as in speed tournaments. Look at the results of the respective tournaments. The oscillator, at least, smooths out this obvious bias.

Sincerely.
