That suggests to me that bunting could occur 4x to 6x what it was previously. I'll post some screenshots later.
I was of the mistaken belief that General Strategic Tendencies allowed the user to set the framework for expected league output and that LTM's modified the output to match those choices. Am I the only one who thought so?

I have very little experience in playing historical but I would think anytime one selects a year from the past, whether 5 years or 50 years it becomes a historical game. That, to me, would mean selecting a historical year to get historical output would mean OOTP would switch any areas to mimic the year selected.
In other words if I take the v22 opening day rosters but, go back to a year where bunting was prevalent I would expect bunting to be increased to a level to make that happen. I then as the user could, after using autocalc, increase or reduce that era setting to anything I wanted. Same as if I took opening day rosters from v22 but chose 1969 as a year I would expect SP to get more innings and more complete games. If I wanted 1969 output but with 2021 pitching type stamina I would think it would be up to me to change the settings myself.
At least that would be my thoughts going in. I would be surprised if my SP stayed with 2021 stamina if I set the year to 1969 and I'd be wondering why 200 innings was hard to crack in 1969

Not saying I'm right, just that it is what my expectation would be
