About the icons Marathon Top 1, 10, 50 or 100 on the player profile page

Hi developers and users of this great chess site. I have small idea. It seems to me that it is better to depict only one corresponding icon with the symbol of the multiplicity of their number in the center of the circle of the icon.
For example, on the profile page of LM Lance5500 will be depicted one icon Marathon Winner with a multiplier x6 in the center of the circle of this icon and one icon Marathon Top 10 with a multiplier x2 in the center of the circle of this trophy. Or on the profile page of CM Kingscrusher-YouTube will be depicted one icon Marathon Top 10 with a multiplier x3 in the center of the circle of this icon, one icon Marathon Top 50 with a multiplier x5 in the center of the circle of this trophy and one icon Marathon Top 100 without a multiplier.
This will free up space on the player profile page! And icons are visually easier to distinguish.
Sorry if someone from the top players did not like this idea.. and my English.
The Topic starter's quotes:

"I have small idea."

This idea might be small for the topic-starter (cause he hasn't cups at the moment), but it is not small at all for the players with multiple cups, especially marathons' ones.

"This will free up space on the player profile page!"

Players who got a lot of cups did their best to get opposite result to what the topic-starter offers.

The players who wish to free up space on their profile page - wouldn't play for marathons' cups and for top ratings' cups and such players would stay happy with their page with the minimal or zero amount of the cups.

The players did their best and spent titanic efforts during 24-hours marathons to get as much constant marathon icons as possible.

If there are any players who prefer to have less won icons in their profiles, there can be a setting in the profile so they can choose the current (classical) or offered by topic-starter way.

Besides that, the topic-starter could also mention the similar idea for the regular (Top 1, 10, 50 or 100) cups for the rating, if he is really interested in the idea which he offers.

Also it might probably be more relevant if the topic-starter's idea would be offered by some player who have a ton of cups already instead of the player who hasn't cups currently but has the fantastic 2846 tactical rating, for which one he receives the large congratulations from me.

Also, it looks like the previous activity (game and forum post) on the topic-starter's account has been 2 years ago. So it is possible to come to the conclusion (or at least a good bet - statistics is the reliable factor) that a person who have created this forum topic - have possibly used some kind of alternate nickname on purpose for making this post which is suspicious and can show the direction of the real motivation of the topic-starter and his "small idea".

Yep, my issue is having too little space for my titles!
In real life this would mean:
'If you won last year, then you get no cup, but you can bring the cup you won last year and we will engrave the multiplier "x2" on it so as to save you space on your shelf.'
Honestly the only comment in this topic which confuses me is #2. (I see that everybody has an opinion but if the only "problem" we're trying to "solve" is against their will changing how *other* players' pages look... that's really not a priority.)
