I think the nature of HQ contests makes this less of a problem, since the +1 augment is just as relevant in a 17 vs 19 contest, as in a 17W2 vs 19W2 contest. Magic doesn't _need_ to get progressively more powerful as characters advance in skill, as long as their opponents are at a similar power level.
