Agreed, the ratio of available cert options to amount of BR that gives points to spend on the certs are used to manage this. There were only 20 or so BR in PS1 in the beginning. The amount of points needed in BR got higher and higher as you went up in rank and was much more stringent in PS1 (i.e. it took a long time to gain enough cert points via BR to get everything you wanted).
