Applying a negative length would get the top person “out of the way” and allow someone else to win it the next day. It would make that leader board more dynamic, and less static.

Only in the short term. As soon as all the players within X inches of the leader gain the peen the leaderboard becomes static once again. This is still only rewarding those that have been playing FWZ longer than the rest, much like every other leaderboard. This is still a bad idea that will only reward those that have been here the longest, how many being decided by whatever value is bumigned to X. Make X to great, and it devalues the peen and the leaderboard. Make it too small and you lose any dynamic you may have been looking for. Why not just petition ET to remove the bonus 3” we all start with and give a meaningless peen to those that were logged in that day? It’s the same thing as this meta-peen of yours and will have about the same impact.
