It used to, in fact the ranking system has had quite a few tweaks to it, all dumb but done to appease the masses who don't understand the model.
Over time it has evolved to reduce then remove margin of victory, it has monkeyed around with how the strength of schedule works, and it has taken less consideration of the models and more consideration of the polls.
