If Sandy Koufax is not an awesome pitcher, his name might as well be Joe Smith. It is enjoyable to see what might happen in different scenarios such as Koufax pitching in Fenway or Aaron hitting in the Astrodome. This is especially true with the now available naturalized stats.
Again, if you do not want the players to perform somewhat as they did IRL, there is no reason to play historical.

I don't know if you aimed this at me or not. If you did then I do like for players to end up like they really were I especially want them to play the positions they played for most of their career. I want Hank Aaron to turn out to be Hank Aaron and not Hannk Schmo. But I also want the "possibilty" that he does end up being Hank Schmo. Recalc pretty much guarantees Aaron will be Aaron and I don't want guarantees. I have never and will never...ever...play a fictional league because names and people do matter to me. If you didn't aim this at me then...never mind.
