Meaning, he gets to a certain point in elo where he advances to the next tier, he can no longer get elo from those newer players, he Is now facing a bit more experienced players, if by doing this he gets all the way up to top tier, it would mean the is capable enough to beat most players in all skill levels, the system would be accurate in his skill. Having a alt blue belt up there doesn't matter... people would know it's an alt, but why would you have an alt instead of your main so high up there? Belt doesn't matter and we all know this, an alt that is a blue belt can be up there, the system is saying he is very skilled, and it's not lieing. That's what makes a good system work, it all depends on accuracy. Your system would work just don't focus too much on alts.
I know if an alt got to the top tier he would be highly skilled, as that is how the system i said works, many alts are extremely high skilled. The reason to stop alts is nothing to do with farming or that it is just because people have that stigma against them. People in general hate them and don't think they should be allowed, often because they are banned players.
Yes maybe you are correct, and the alts thing and QI restriction should just be forgotten about. It was just a point to keep people happy.
