I think if you're using it to perform strategy analysis on your team, you enter cheating territory. There's a couple reason's why it's different from what real teams do.

First if you're the only one that can perform "strategy analysis", then it's an advantage.

Second, real teams have real players. They are not based on numbered ratings. OOTP is a game based on numbered ratings. Simming your game to perform analysis is the same thing as if the Yankees had a time machine that they, and only them, could use to reset the season after they play it out a few times.

If you assert that 100 different sims will end up 100 different ways, why do it in the first place? Why open yourself to that kind of scrutiny?
