No, it doesn't necessary to have something to do with the pairing selection algorithm. it takes 1000000 battles for everyone to have 1 battle, and 20000000 battles to restore to previous state. Which takes 100+ years on my low-end PC.

Newer bots are selected with priority because they have less than 5000 battles. Old bots with more than 5000 battles aren't selected until everyone had at least 5000 battles. So if we want to stabilize the rumble, we need to prevent updating the rumble too frequently.

I don't think the current algorithm has any problems. Newer bots are more important because someone cares about it. Older bots still have rankings even with only 1 battle per pairing, and would eventually get more battles in the next 100 years.
