Sorry, I don't quite get this. Could you explain in some more detail?

I think the concern is that e.g. the Hard Leather Boots of Feanor, being Hard Leather Boots (a low-level item) would, if they were a randart, have a fairly restrictive cap on how deep they can appear. I don't know if that's actually the case, but certainly an item's max depth should correspond to its power alone, not to its base item.

The other way holds too: get rid of too many weak ego types at some depth, and essentially every object becomes top notch. (Notably, big three weapons. Also: crowns.)

Oh, right, that makes sense.
