One of the reasons an online league might choose to use low injury settings is because the human manager/GM is often not around to take injured players out of the lineup - for example, if several of your starters get injured on day 1 of a 14 day sim period. Note that fully trusting the OOTP AI to follow your depth chart is not going to be a winning strategy:P.

Many online leagues also use an edited injuries.txt file to reduce the % of season ending injuries which has been very high in the last several versions of OOTP. Additionally, this edited injuries.txt files often remove the career ending injuries as well, since those are terrible (as pointed out above) for GM retention.
