I think this is a conceptual hurdle that not everyone shares, but I agree it's significant. In pure concept, I guess I really don't care is a sim game models the real world perfectly -- as long as the game is understandable and the decisions and rewards are connected properly, I can roll with anything. But I also agree if the game is clerly trying to represent a real-life framework, it's just not "fair" to people who know something about the real-life sport being modeled to feel like they need to discard or override that information to properly play the sim. I think it's tough to do that.
