That's another way of expressing what I'm saying, and what the scatter plot shows. It takes MORE added power to jump x% of the riders as you get closer to 100%, for a given x. That's the same as saying the same power jumps fewer riders. The common knowledge suggests the reverse of that (that riders at the highest level get closer in ability, ie, takes LESS added power to jump x% of the riders).
