It was definitely mostly a joke, I think they're useful and it's great being able to keep track of your progress over the year (if occasionally depressing.)
I just still think of them as 'provisional', which is probably more of a consideration in Scotland where most of us will have local league games played in October and not uploaded till March, or some such, than it is on the elite lists. Certainly if someone asks me what my rating is I'm going to tell them the published one rather than the live one.
