In your exegesis, this seems to be the turning point. Either the player seeks to cultivate an environment in which they can play at a higher standard, or they seek to go off the rails and "punish" the others for not providing it.

I would assume that a player who seeks to cultivate an environment with a higher standard of play would be a regular in the high-elo event room, but i don't think i've been observing that [url=http://zero-k.info/Battles?Title=Platinum&Map=&PlayersFrom=&PlayersTo=&Age=0&Mission=0&Bots=0&Rank=8&Victory=0&UserId=393678]here[/url] or [url=http://zero-k.info/Battles?Title=Palladium&Map=&PlayersFrom=&PlayersTo=&Age=0&Mission=0&Bots=0&Rank=8&Victory=0&UserId=393678]here[/url].

Consequently, i don't even think that higher availability of the high-elo room would change things. I am also not certain that you could avoid the bad transition here by cultivating some culture of pursuit of higher play in opposition to the culture of "lel lobster cooked" - again, because that's readily within reach, but [i][u]one[/u] is not grasping[/i] for it.

Is there any experiment that you would stage to determine if this even works? Do you have any other intervention in mind?

Unfortunately, RTS is one of the genres that [url=https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/cyber.2015.0092]seems[/url] to be more susceptible to causing this. I would advocate that if you find yourself in such a situation, you actually need to figure out how to play less.

I don't see what your conflict is though with following through with harsher measures if this fails (e.g. gets from the "feels upset about players who play worse than him" to "actively blows up ally units").
