It's a bit unfair that in every tournament Carlsen plays in, all the other players are obliged to play against a field with a higher average rating than Carlsen is -- only Carlsen always gets to play against lower-rated players.
I have to agree with post #2 on this. When Carlsen loses he will lose more points than when he wins.
