I'm not sure I agree with that peppy. I mean how the hell are we supposed to know how much pp we need to get to a certain rank? I don't think it's very motivating when we do not have a reference point on how much effort it actually takes to pass a milestone rank. It also will not help if new players do not have a reference to why their rank is jumping 1000s of spots.
Decreasing functionality is almost never a good thing. A good explanation is required for me to get behind your decision. If you want me on your side about this, explain why I should be on your side and then I will spread the word.
Well, using raw pp as a milestone does have a problem: there seems to be a pp inflation (over time more pp is needed to achieve certain rank, so the same amount of pp doesn't always have the same value).
For example, I spent about 3 months in the 12k-11k ranking range, while constantly increasing my pp over time.
Raw pp works better as a short-term milestone (for example if you want to increase rank from 10000 to 9700, or something like that).
