Not really, if you're on a full DIK run you keep picking DIK to avoid dropping to middling DIK/Neutral, exactly as were doing up to that point. If you're not on a maxing run then you keep picking mixed choices to keep the MC in the desired affinity zone. It's like exercise, even at peak fitness got to keep doing it to maintain your level. If want those DIK events got to keep making DIK choices and vice versa.But the fact that these choices won't have an impact once people have wiped out one side makes it superfluous and pointless for those players, so something surely needs to be put in place to give them choices that have an actual impact.
I agree finite increments on the scale could be a problem given the projected length of the game, as that may cause all runs to converge on max CHICK/NEUTRAL/DIK. A possible solution would be to add more increments to the scale in subsequent seasons, which still wouldn't change this game mechanic, just gives the player extra ammo.
IMO significantly overhauling the main game mechanic 1/3 through would be painful, but until we know what DPC has planned it's not worth speculating about much. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
