My point is that this heavily relied upon quality rating implies that those with poor quality ratings have fewer good performances - but that wasn't true in my data.
Just because people don't understand how the ratings work doesn't mean we should keep inflating them. As mentioned the formula get changed every year.
You're also not using 100% scouting so there could be some fog of war you're missing.
In a 20-80 rating system, 5 points is worth around 0.5 WAR. That's nothing.

Change over to increments of 5 and you'll see how similar those players are. Try 100 accuracy as well, don't have to keep it that way . Can always force close the game so nothing is saved
