Yes, I wouldn't hold out much hope for OOTP Developments addressing any of the early players unless it can use a third-party source as a "database" of stats for importing and creating specific players. That might be what you're ultimately trying to build.
In the past, we've seen support for a couple of databases built by the community, so if you could create something like that for select players, with historical IDs to be matched up and stats to be used instead of the default stats in the historical and historical minors databases, then maybe the developers would entertain the idea.
Unfortunately, this issue is on the more obscure end of NeL representation, but if you can complete your tests and build a database, then maybe your fix could be paired with a fix for the adjust/weaken issue with the NeLs from the 1920s onward. My hope is that we might get an adjust/weaken fix for OOTP25. If that can be paired with a fix for select early players, then it becomes an even better improvement, and it's one that has good PR value for OOTP Developments.
