However, OOTP25 does not adjust for rookies in this way, so if yo type in 1000/250 it will still look for 1000 AB over those first 3 seasons. If you use double-weight you are at least counting their rookie season twice then in the total sample that the game is using.
Does doubling the current year increase (in the case of 5yr recall) the minimum threshold by 20%? I ask because the trade off would be that if someone were not choosing to have players miss seasons according to real life and / or were playing RD, the double-weighting would have the unwanted effect of amplifying the effect of injured / low-usage seasons.
