A Flaw? I hope I'm wrong... Could S Ranks Become Impossible?

Ive had a couple of posts recently complaining about not being able to S, but I think that while everyone is focusing on the HOW TO and not the WHY for the grading system. First off, as most who have done research know, your grade is based on how well you do compared to other players worldwide in that position with that champion. Thats all rito here tells us, at least. It might be easier for support, but thats because nobody ever want to play there. (Its a good position to play in reality, just no kill glory.) As for the rest of us, this possible scenario I found could come about a hell of a lot faster. So. The flaw. So we will take ten players playing with one champ, in one position. All of them want S ranks, but only the best of them can have it. So the others manage to get someone to beat that score. Now that player is the standard for S ranks. The players keep trying to get better and better, having higher and higher scores to get an S. After a time, nobody can beat the top score. Not even the best of them, who still wants to get better. So its impossible to get an S now. See how this plays out now? With everyone in the international playerbase, even if divised by ranks levels and elos tries to go for S, the, it becomes impossible. Could this be so?

ANYTHING MAJOR MAY ALREADY BE IN COMMENTS CHECK BEFORE ASKING

I'm pretty sure it takes the average of all players of that champ and lane, not the best/top player.

You forgot a certain 'No' answer. It is not an 'All Time High Score!!!' If everyone starts sucking in a patch with a champion after a nerf / buff / overhaul, it adapts.

let me just say it can be really hard to get an s as a support, you actually need to get kills. you go 0/0/30 sona you get an a-, a+, and MAYBE s- but you go 2/0/30 you get an s maybe an s+. 2/3/15 nami not even s-. it's nuts. unless you want to piss off teammates it's almost impossible to get an s. to get from lvl 6 to lvl 7 sona i pissed off 2 adcs and a gp by "stealing kills" (okay i stole from the gp...) and "not building like a support"(hey i built frost queen and sightstone before building ap)
