> X ELO in yyy bytes

Because then you're measuring on two axes. Which is better, 1500 elo in 300 bytes or 1550 elo in 310 bytes?

For a byte count comparison to make much sense, the program really ought to have a static target criteria.

I used a placeholder for X ELO, but my point was the community should pick one value that makes sense and then not change it.

Interesting would be how much bytes improve by 100 ELO?
