i think they are going to tweak this stuff based on number of threads and if it's repeatable, observable and not a side effect of other factors/choices.
did the demand drop?
can't offer a contract until demand drops if you want to pay less. they remember your last offer and will be upset if you try to offer less. once you offer an amount, it's locked in... is it quite right? maybe not, but not quite wrong either. flip-flopping on an offern isn't going to help negotiations in real life either. i think they'd still take an extra ~$5m/year if that's still reality of the offer vs competition... but that gets into arbitrary choices and opinion.
in the past, their demand would drop over time if the ai doesn't offer enough. the demand will stay higher than current offers, obviously. if it didn't drop and it went from a ~30-40M demand to 18-20M contract.. that's a problem for sure. 3-5M less? tha'ts probably normal from previous versions
is your team significantly "richer" than anyone else? or huge amount of budget space available? changing max cash allowed to carry over each year can cause inflated demands relative to what they will actually sign for too. if you left this stuff default, i woudn't worry about it.. if you made edits, it could be part of cause if it increase revenue in an extreme way (or cash on hand affecting extension demands, which carryover to FA).
