That was not the only argument. If you look at the threads from 2-3 years ago, many veteran OOTP players argued to keep them in the complex as long as possible to avoid accruing service time too early. It makes sense since why would you want a 16 year old accruing time such that he can be a free agent at 21, maybe a year or two before he'd be ready for MLB.
