The facts are, this player who is not good enough to be on the active roster and who is not of interest to any other team is temporarily not able to be offered a contract by the team that doesn't want him. If this league has a trading deadline the waiver wire will be wiped and unless the AI puts him on waivers again a contract can be offered. If the AI puts him on waivers again, before offering a new contract, would you still claim that it's for contract purposes? I bet it's because he makes $1.1M and the AI wants to dump that contract.
Is it a problem? Yes. Is it important? I think not, (I'd say a 2/10) but you may not agree. To me it depends on the reason for putting the player on waivers. I think we can state with certainty that it wasn't to offer him a new contract.

I don't understand what you are saying in your first paragraph. I looked at three teams' rosters (alphabetical order) before I found Ta.
What if he has a great next month at AAA, is promoted and does well? Not unlikely, and I'm sure I could find others like him. So it is a problem. I agree that it is not severe problem, but it was seemingly argued that it was not a problem at all earlier in the thread.
