So if you go inactive, no you're raw rating won't change, but that 'meaning' of that rating may change over time as the player base matures and players get better. What was once considered a great rating may become 'average'.

It sounds like activity is a major part of the hidden rating, much like it is for the points rankings. Contrast this with ELO, where a 2000 rating is a 2000 rating, now and a year from now.

True, but even ELO suffers from rating inflation. A 2000 rating today may be on grandmaster level - but 2 months from now it could be *only* master level.
Over time, the average and top ratings will increase unless the system compensates in some fashion.
