The OS and 2k community is very particular about the things they care about. You'll learn that the longer you are here.
Some of the issues people would bring up used to baffle me, especially the art/cosmetic stuff. I would think "man who cares it doesn't effect how the game plays. You can barely notice that issues when you are playing." But people do care about this stuff, no matter how minor it may be, and at the end of the day the more things that 2k "gets right" the better the overall product will be. Maybe it's a hair style, maybe it's a color being off on a jersey or court, maybe it's a body model not being accurate, etc. They might seem like minor things, and they won't make or break the game, but every little detail that is accurate makes for a more authentic product. This is only going to be more important as graphics improve. We are reaching the point where if things aren't 100% photo accurate people will call it out
