Also, to say that franchise mode was "completely untouched" is inaccurate; there were improvements to things like the stat simulation engine and touch-ups here and there. The point stands that they should have done more, but to say they didn't touch it at all is simply wrong.

Seems like you skipped over this part.

If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)
