Honus, it seems to me that all would agree that the game engine itself needs the "current ratings" in order to generate its results. Your belief obviously is that those "current ratings" should remain invisible to the player, and that only stats should be used. My understanding is that the game supports this method of play. So why not use it and not worry about what other people are doing?
Don't get me wrong; I think your argument has merit, especially as OOTP continues to get better at modeling player careers and in-game events. (Personally, I play my solo leagues in "god mode," so I don't really have a dog in this fight.) I guess I'm just trying to understand how the game would be different if you got what you wanted here. Would the option to use the "current ratings" be disabled? If so, it seems like you're doing a disservice to those who'd like to use it without gaining anything in your own game.
Feel free to enlighten me if I'm missing something here.
