General questions regarding CAPS2 accuracy scoring

It's my understanding that the new system takes into account your rating during the game as well, but what if I just input a game for analysis without specifying ratings for either side? Also too, just because, it would be cool to see an updated article featuring the CAPS2 system like they did for the original CAPS showing how the greatest of all time scored overall throughout their careers. Would the new system cause major changes on that list? Would their average accuracy score now be lower because the system is more detailed/stricter? What about detailing the range someone should be scoring on average based on their rating?

At one point, if a game didn't have ratings for players, Game Review wouldn't provide any ratings estimates. Not sure exactly how that impacts accuracy scores.

That said, CAPS2 has been out for quite a while now.

I did remember not getting a game score or rating on games that I manually inputted, didn't know that CAPS2 takes into account your rating, but now we are able to get a score on manually uploaded games so maybe it's based on a standard or generic rating when ratings are unknown now?
