Some users asked for it. If they don't add it someone complains. They add it, someone complains. This is the world the developer lives in. Not all suggestions make it into the game, but framing did.

Good news is since it is OOTP, THEY MADE IT AN OPTION THAT USERS CAN TURN OFF. League settings>stats&ai>catcher framing impact>"none" is an option in the menu. You're really arguing against a feature that can be turned off?

The three batter minimum was added to OOTP though many users hate the rule. It was added because it is a part of today's MLB. It was also done with the option to turn it off for those that don't like it or play historical.

Sounds a lot like framing, doesn't it?

Some comments from Matt from this thread..
