It should not be, but if you are seeing this issue across multiple saves then I have to wonder if there might be an issue here.
I have not seen anything wildly beyond what I am used to, but I also never manage any of my games. I might go in and watch a small handful of important games from time to time. But a vast majority of the time I am just simming from day to day and only acting as the GM.

I understand your reasoning. Makes good sense. I guess what I could do is start a new save (and make a second copy) then play the games out in one and sim the other - that would be the best approach.
But at this point I really don't have the time or energy to do that for multiple reasons beyond being a little jaded right now.
We each approach the game differently - I like to manage the games because it brings the players and their performances to life as opposed to simply checking the sim results.
I'm also very hands on as a GM, especially with rebuilding or small market teams, trying to spend and save every last dollar so I'm very active transactionally. If I couldn't do this and remained hands off so that the players remain basically the same in both saves, I think I would soon lose interest.
