All that proves, I think, is that per game is the wrong granularity with which to assess PR.

And once you grant that, then I don't see the point of tinkering with the details of the definition of ER/PR. In the medium run all these details tend to average out anyway.

If one wants more information about skill than ER/PR is able to give, then I think a better approach is simply to record a wider variety of statistics. There's only so much information one number can give you, so why artificially limit yourself to one number?
