Historical player creation modifiers

At work, so I'm not exactly sure on the exact wording. Was messing around with a fictional setup, but was thinking about having the game import random historical rookies. Noticed right above the option for importing historical rookies is an option that something like Import historical player creation modifiers. What exactly does this do? It's not checked by default.

Here is what the Wiki says.

"This option will automatically adjust player-creation modifiers based on real-world player performance during that specific year, resulting in players who tend to match the skillsets of similar players in the same years in the real world."

David, that looks like a nice detail but either way it's not going to affect league performance. If the game creates a big HR hitter or a big K pitcher auto-calc prevent him from getting all his HRs or Ks. As it's said, there are only so many to go around.
