GDP only directly appears in the denominator of Medals/GDP, so the ranking implies that having high GDP is bad.
I don't particularly care about country rankings, but I feel like this same idea applies to benchmarks. The benchmark methodology tells you what the person thinks is important, e.g., when people pass around benchmarks of terminal throughput to prove that some terminal is the best, they're effectively saying that terminal throughput is very important.
