Foreign players limit

In the Swiss league (example) there is a limit of foreign players .. ok
but why can't I sign 5 or 6 in total as it happens in reality? then only 4 go on the ice and it will be up to me to decide which ones

It causes serious issues with the roster AI to use different foreigner limits for game lineups and rosters, so we go with the lower number. We may need to take another look at the way foreigners work in Switzerland in the future, as things are going to get messy for us in Switzerland if the National League goes through with the 10-player limit (but abolishes Swiss licenses) in 2022-23 and the Swiss League stays with the old rules.
