I would guess that the ranges those stats impact would get closer together and almost cancel out in a comparison sense.

If range is 8 to 20, then it would matter more if you're on the high end or low end. But if it's 12 to 16, it matters less as the low and high end are close together, especially if you're in the middle, like had a 14 range SS. 14 in an 8 to 20 range, it would matter much more if you went to 8 or 20.

It would also make the teams pretty much even strength, making randomness more of a factor since low to high, the spread is small, there's more likely going to be overlap where a 12 might do as well as the 16 in any given year or series. Meanwhile it's much less likely that an 8 would do as well as a 20 for any decent length of time.
