Back on the topic of this suggestion, which is quite nice (but perhaps difficult to implement?)... I've felt that it wouldn't be too unfathomable to have another set of sliders on each individual player's strategy. Maybe seperate from Game Strategy, a new "Development Strategy" page that works just like the Game Strategy. You can set it team-by-team, or for the whole organization, or each individual player. If you put it on a slider, you're emphasizing one thing at the cost of another. It's like a coach saying "quit swinging for the fences, shorten your swing and put the ball in play".
There's countless players that are impacted like this. One I think of is Raul Ibanez. He was a dud for lord knows how long, until one day, someone advised him that less-is-sometimes-more... he toned down his swing and became a consistent productive hitter for several years... Not a slugger like he had been trying to be, but it was great coaching advice that helped him. It would be really fun to get a little more hands on with impacting development.
I think discussing things like this outside the suggestion forum is useful to see what popular opinion might be. Why offer a suggestion that isn't going to be taken seriously, if it can at least be validated as a well-liked and popular idea first? No harm in that IMHO.
