I feel that making "across the board" ratings changes as you as saying should be done is not realistic. Some players play better on the road than at home.....
To make this adjustment no matter how slight I feel is not a good design model. To allow the players and teams to perform as they will whether at home or on the road to me is a better model, and this is the design that we have chosen.
Statistics may or may not bear out the home field advantage issue, but I would be curious how many sports simulation actually weigh this difference into their formulas? I know that Action PC Football give this as an "option". That may be something to consider in the future. But I feel to force the issue would not be right.
