The major progression rewards are better as you go further. The minor progression rewards are more just reminders of 'hey, you're almost to the next actual progression reward, keep going!' The minor rewards are more of a psychological trigger as opposed to having this huge gap of nothing that would make the entire process feel more grinding. I honestly wouldn't mind more smaller, smaller rewards in between the top ranks just for that emotional reinforcement.
