In that it's tricky to identify the right mean to measure the regression against.

It doesn’t matter which one you pick, there are no known exceptions to the general phenomena.

That’s why I said by definition.

By what definition? It's certainly possible that some kind of societal bell curve or other distribution can just keep getting wider without meaningful movement of the relative positions of individuals. I don't understand why you assume the most likely behavior is regression to the mean. Especially on short terms that seems weird to assume

Who is assuming a short term?
