Hey Ma! During Spring Training, I forgot how to play the field!

Well, the first ST of BPLA history just finished and something funny (well not to the owners, but...) happened to 7 players in the league.

Apparently these players were all horrid defensive players (E rated) before ST. Each of these players had 0 points allocated in their defense category for training and...

Now they have no idea how to play any position!!

They have completely forgotten how to play the field at every position.

My three questions are --

1) Has this always happened in OOTP? Or is this a v5 thing?
2) How can these players relearn that defense? Can they just allocate points back into defense next ST, or would they have to teach them the postition again?
3) Would it be fair of me to give these players back a rating of E in their base position (or perhaps first since it is the easiest position to play)? The owners did take those points away and used them to develop another skill, and editing would be like giving them 5 extra points for each of those players...
