Well if he is bored being the world champion, he may just be looking for any hard to reach goal at all.

If the top players are not winning their games, they will not stay at the top for long.

He's bored not exactly by being the world champion, but by the format, where he has to prep for a long series of games all against just one opponent. He wants to play a variety of players. He wants the world championship to be a tournament with many entrants, rather than last year's champion against just one opponent.
I think this is it. But 2900 seems very arbitrary. It's not even that round. If he were close to 3000 that would at least be a satisfying number.
