They have to make the cutoff point somewhere.
While I agree a lot of kids could come into play for the 5* ranking, most 5* are probably looked at as "can't miss" prospects, whereas there is much more parity in the 4 stars and so on.
If they raised the number of 5 stars to 60 (double the avg) all it would mean is that 30 4*s were seen as 5*s, and I'm not sure the depth of the 5* list is really that big.

If they are honestly being evaluated, why should there be a cutoff point though? If one year there are 50 can't miss players and one year there are 15, then that should be the amount I would think.
Not that I put a lot of faith into these rankings, I just found it interesting that the number had such little variation.
