Yes as i see the rating system is a tragedy indeed. Among others it highly overestimates the starting games to establish an ELO.
If you have accidentally or not some good starting results, in the starting 4-6 games e.g then you get very high ratings that are hard to decrease too much and indicate your real ELO.
On the other hand if a good player has a bad start he has to suffer and wait many games in order to take his real place.

Also the way Chess variants' and Backgammon variants' ratings are handled should definitely not be the same as they are.

Some more problems are that this site unfortunately is full of players who try to be smart not to say smarta***
They take advantage of some games that favor one side and play always with that side and getting placed at the first places of the ratings.
E.g Horde Chess, Maharajah Chess and some others as i've seen. I wonder what's the meaning and the purpose of doing this? This ain't no fun!

And what about this Maharajah Chess game? This game is so one-sided that black wins hands down. What's the purpose of still having it? Even if white had 2 Maharajahs black would have a forced win again.

Some things are hard to understand to this site.
