Is there a way to easily just replace everyone with their historical database(retired and current) counterparts in a 2016 start? Why is the 2016 default data different than historical?

It just is. It's one of those things. I'm sure it might seem strange as an outsider, but we're basically talking about two totally and completely different systems.
Historical uses a Lahman db. Modern uses an OOTP proprietary db.
We could import the historical data to the modern db but the id's, and really everything else don't match, so there'd be a ton of work to get things sorted out.
It's not impossible to do by any means, but it'd take far more time and effort than are readily available to our small team at this point in time.
Hopefully that will change in the future, but for now it just is what it is.
