You have yourself made a bit of an error there (or worded it badly/confusingly?).
If you look at the two examples you give, the actual loss over the period is basically the same (60 peds). The reason for the small difference is that the second example is not a full 2k drops, so the expected loss is a bit lower.
Thats true, the total loss is the same (second a little lower as its not a full 2k PED run)
But if it comes to percentage its completely different.
2k PED in 1940 out = 97% return
500 PED in 442,64 out = 88.5% return
Both samples have exactly the same TT value loss if exactly same amount PEDs cycled as we assumed the return is constant 97%.
The problem I wanted to point to is that if you cycle your loots again and again you go away from the magical 97% (compared to starting balance) with every further run although you might actually hit it every run.
