But I think I see where we can project out the revenue sharing/luxury tax values into the future budgets, which should help especially in leagues with bigger gaps in income, or to be able to use it for future planning when the owner doesn't control the budget.

This would be a huge help.
We had the cash cap to keep spending under control before we had revenue sharing. But I can see how in this new model of revenue sharing that a cash cap/floor isn't as needed, or at least doesn't provide the same result it was originally intended to do (control losses or high gains). We are more concerned with teams ability to spend to compete. So it would seem that removing the cap with revenue sharing would do that.
