I think the key is to not bring up real players when making the argument. Even if your argument is valid (which I think it is here), that automatically prompts everyone to remind you that the game doesn't know people's names. The reason is that the majority of the people who have had problems are people who use real current players and feel that the computer isn't behaving realistically with them, and when that's the problem (i.e. handling them as a real manager would in real life), it's not OOTP that's at fault, but the roster set.

So when making these arguments, one should avoid naming names (at least if they are known players).
