Well it is true that some non-scholars and local scholars have a higher CEP than their peers because they performed very well in their first school. These folks may be placed on FLP and be invited for FHQ postings, and enjoy accelerated advancement compared to their peers.
However, they must keep in mind that their glass ceiling is still lower than the highest tier scholars. It's probably not impossible for a truly outstanding local scholar to prove themself worthy and become perhaps a cluster superintendent or equivalent, but they will never become a DyDGE because they will simply not be picked over an equal-performing higher tier scholar.
As much as we are trying to get rid of this "scholar first" perception in modern times, there are still (too?) many scholars in the public service in general who have to compete fiercely between themselves for advancement. The glass ceiling for non-/lower-tier scholars is therefore not systemic/built-in, but simply statistical.
