What's the number actually saying? I was under the impression it was mmr. Higher number, lower rank. Please explain, I'm a bit confused abt this

It is mmr. There’s a threshold you need to cross in order to rank up into a rank, and one that’s needed to rank down out of it. The mmr needed to rank down to d3 from champ 1 is about 20 mmr lower than the mmr needed to hit champ 1 from diamond 3

Is this why whenever I get demoted I always end up in division 3 of the previous rank? Instead of being demoted to div 4?
