I think the point here is that the issue isn’t with the actual ratings, it’s in the way the 20-80 scouting system works. I would also prefer it to be based on standard deviations (or at least the percentile equivalent) but I also think Matt is correct that a draft board with only some very rare 70s in it and 50-55 guys at the end of the first round would be a draft board people would complain about, even if that’s more realistic in OOTP terms. I’m also personally not all that interested in the complaints that this system would also very often devolve into one with like 3-4 ratings levels with a bunch of outliers but again, people would have to be retrained on that (and even in here 20-80 is being brought up as a system some use because it’s more granular than 1-10 ratings).
