On a couple of things:
1. OOTP's well-known bias toward modern-day statistics, including things like player origins, which are still
hard-coded into the game. Baseball has seen profound changes over the decades, but OOTP thinks that every year is 2013;
2. Some simple logic: adjusting player sizes should (as you point out) be relatively easy, if all that was needed to do was to adjust the numbers, but since the developers didn't make that simple change, that suggests that the change isn't so simple after all; and
3. My knowledge of computer programming is informed by the belief that all computers are inhabited by invisible pixies who make everything run by means of magic. Consequently, I can say anything I like about computer programming in the complete confidence that someone smarter than me will tell me that I'm laughably wrong.
