Interesting reflections and introspection efforts.
> This instant rating gratification after each game is much more significant compared to rating adjustments after each tournament or after each month as we know from OTB chess.
I did not consider that. I only do online. And mostly non-rated, actually. But thinking of others and the atmosphere that I sometimes "sense", in discussions and comments, and blog advertisement about rating here and on the wall and the ceiling (oops, i derailed, but caught myself.. hahum).
So official OTB, is only having eyes of the tier selection or batches? ratings being only some sort of longer terms entry selection criteria for future putative tournaments.
So, in the online rated game-ification (as in addictive gambling game? or video game? short burst of adrenaline alternating with tension and its release?), it might explain a tendency toward shorter time-controls, in order to augment the pace of games. So, in OTB blitz sessions (does that exist), what is the kind of pace that player can have in a day?
> and a clock.
nope, not even that is necessary... I bumped into that at the end... little dissonance (subjective).

How do I avoid the trap? By not playing on chess.com.
correspondance rated! I don't know why I did not think of mentionning.. That does the rating increment (or de-) delaying so spread out, that we barely notice it.
I lik3 duolingo chess. This is brilliant.

”The Tactics Ladder," a revolutionary series of 10 books[...]” :):):)
Like when Humans learned to handle the fire. Or like the invention of the wheel!
Your books will change chess forever, we are all soon monsters with 5000+ in rating!
ps. All the 1000 other tatics books got it wrong, burn them
(Sarcasm).

so, the 1001st reason lichess is better :)
I think the problem is too much of a good thing, always end up being bad.
A good idea, give a time structure for the many time scales of learning and having other things like the chores of life to intertwine, and the needed wandering states (you known like they say you should let your kids have some non engaged and taskful times, that is a nota waste of learning, that is part of breathing in and out, the learning, we have ryhtms, and not just 24h, actually 25, go figure).
But put that thing to make an addict, that is something else. Having conscious carotting through time, and using computers lack for frustration over repetition, to paliate our lack of keeping on task over long periods ain't bad. But then one has to watch out on the other side of that distribution of behaviors, when it becomes its own attractor to go and do clusters of the same behavior, repreatedely for the short term hook. Sometimes it is a remedy, sometime a trap of perspective. So now, I say wishy washy things. Like a chat bot.
