Are the sub-2.00 ERAs happening in 2013 seasons or seasons that are five, 10 or 20 years into the future? If they're happening many seasons into a game, how do we know what's realistic compared to what's going to happen in 2023, for instance?

I'm not saying that there isn't an issue with or change implemented for player creation modifiers. Just pointing out that we have no real-life data to compare to when we're talking about anything beyond 2013.
