That's essentially the same principle, though,right? A previous contract was established under a different financial situation and time. It would be like using Pujol's contract in as the basic reference for what an MVP contract should be ten years from now, but in reality, a player like Pujols in 2020 will likely be asking a lot more.
Point is that the GMs seem to be sustaining a financial status quo with contracts when the league finances have changed. I think that's fine, but the game isn't equipped to deal with that at this time, but it would be great if it could for leagues that want it.
