Catering to the extremely small minority of people who want to play something that is not baseball in a baseball simulator has always seemed odd. But I guess they found another area for growth with the microtransaction mode.

They have done this though. You can play vanilla OOTP out of the box and play like normal baseball without any issues, even with a MLB license now. The game is still highly customizable, but the onboarding into the game now is so focused on people who would prefer to play normal baseball that our old-school gripes about it only being for nerds who sit up all night editing XML files so they can play in fictional countries (it me) isn't really the core experience anymore.
