Wrong direction

I think all this is really wrong direction and backgammon should not take it. I'm sure now most will be against me, but for me this is not the way you attract people. And i'm supposed to be the one to like it as i'm doing those stats from years.
Titles should be given for achievements and winning tournaments, not for playing as close as possible to bot. Of course is good to know, but everyone can keep trying to play better and keep stats for himself.
if u just start playing backgammon would not it be funny for you to see "X" won 3 events this year but he has no title as master, Gm or whatever, and someone who for 10 years won nothing is Ultra mega Grandmaster.....How do you justify this?
Also you guys mislead the public-all showing minimum level at 6 is ridiculous but it is normal 909% of the people tend to overestimate them self and lie once is question about PR.
Did u ever see in chess someone showing the results based by the computer program?
