limit transition to no limit

A high winrate at low limit to mid limit hold'em is generally agreed upon to be 3-4BB/100. The accepted ceiling we will say is 4BB/100. In NL, at the corresponding levels, 8-12PTBB/100 is a good winrate with really good players being able to hammer out 15-18PTBB/100 in the lowest games. We will use the ceiling to be 18PTBB/100 for NL.

I grab one million people at random. I have half of them play NL ring and half play limit ring. I believe I will have a much higher percentage of people beating the NL games for a "good" rate (~8PTBB/100) than you will have people beating limit for a "good" rate (~3BB/100).

Do people disagree with this?

Are you taking people that have never played poker before?
Have they played limit, NL before?

How many of these players are going to be winners - and why do you think more will be able to beat NL for 18TBB than beat the limit game for 4bb? What do you base this idea on?

I'm not trying to be a prick here - just give me some sound ideas that can be substantiated to support your theory.
