Like I said YMMV. As for me I don't use the screen, I use a custom filter to watch my roster.
I do know that hours have gone into testing this possible FA screen because players are claiming they are losing guys they shouldn't be. From what I can tell testing it is because the player's status does change because of days of service rules and they don't see it coming. Guys have been playing with the man for two or three years and still argue about and show they don't understand the rules as they are it ootp.
Too me it's just easier on the whole to have them on rather than off. They are potetial FA's becasue of time served and are also protected because of being on the man, so a little of both. I have a feeling that more people will lose guys and complain than guys that will be confused by the situation. Guys like you that no the rules will understand the player is still protected while guys that don't know the rule will not understand how they lost this player when he wasn't on the list all season long.
You can argue "know the rule" and I totally agree with you. But look around the boards and I think while we may not be a minority we are far from being a "super majority".
So either way it is done in the game is of no consequence to me. I find it neither distracting or confusing.
