And at the very least it needs to have a minimum length of the rest of the season.
The good reason is that it happens to players in real life. It actually happened to a guy at my high school. He missed his entire Junior year due to testicular cancer. Cancer, shootings, and a few other off-the-field things were in there and supposed to be very rare. My understanding is that Arlie removed them occurring due to negative feedback in the first demo, but left them in the data table for those that want to use them.
