Another problem is that those who don't have the interest/time/capability/whatever to go long-run in this game unlike completionists wont even bother to try, and will result in a leaderboard that rapidly down-slopes with some large value gaps between each rank, even after a couple of months. Years (?)
Lowering the limitation of files needed to AAA on rates for maxing out a leaderboard potential by a considerable amount would solve it, so we don't end up asking someone "hey do u wanna play 90+ hours worth of files again to become best in ______?"

I disagree with this, suppose theres a seperate leaderboard for rates etc, and each song has a "highest rate AAAd" on it, if you dont get rating or w/e and theres no benefit like avgrank etc then theres no reason for people to farm it, it would just show a cool baseline for how far a file could be pushed, and would encourage people to push it to further rates

If there arent stats or whatnot that you gain, and it was purely just a metric of how far a song could be pushed speedwise, then imo its fine

With that being said, if "highest AAA'd rate" became a thing, then at that point you might as well credit scores >1.0 with it registering as 1.0 or w/e, i dont see any issue this would make lol, again its just "but i spent so long playing every file!!! god forbid my time is discredited!!!!"
