So, if a historical league has the following settings...

1. Player Development Disabled
2. Recalc = on
3. Recalc base = 1 year
4. Base ratings on real stats
5. Historical transactions = on

... does it matter at all what potential ratings are based upon?

I'm thinking that this will affect the number of stars a player gets for his potential rating, but that will only be informational; it won't really affect anything since 1-yr recalc determines the ratings each year. Am I correct or am I missing something?

(The only thing I can think of is that it might affect certain AI roster decisions that are not encompassed by historical transactions being on... But I'm not sure.)
