RPI does not factor in margin of victory. Also, that home-road adjustment went way overboard (I'd argue that the right ratio is 1.2-0.8, and not 1.4-0.6).
Sorry, I know you've explained this before but one more time if you don't mind? It had something to do with RPI really emphasizing home losses and road wins or something along those lines?

There used to no difference between home and road wins in the RPI calculation, and that changed some time around 2005. Instead of making a minor adjustment, they made the adjustment to the 1.4-0.6 formula that we see today.

That "formula" is really mathematically out of wack.
