Comments:

I do not see any safeguards for an employee that receives a a top rating (year after year) from their immediate supervisor but never receives a pay for performance increase. Supervisors are not required to give any increases regardless of outstanding performance year after year. This will happen when you treat a pay increase as a reward. You have many supervisors in government to include military supervivors that will refuse to give any additional monetary reward regardless of how well you do your performance objectives. Military do not receive rewards for doing their job so why should they give civlians a monetary performance reward for doing their job?
