I can't speak for him, but I got tired of it about five versions ago.
That's why many people want a kind of half-measure where you can tell the game to make last and second to last (or whatever your league requires) places to avoid and the top 3-4 or so equivalent to making playoffs/winning the league so teams close to those slots can adjust accordingly. I understand if we don't get the full Football Manager treatment where players have relegation release clauses and extras like that but an adjustment that allows the AI to recognize what spots to avoid/aim for would improve playing P/R greatly.
