Yes, I agree.

For platoon splits, a RHB needs about 2200 PA's vLHP for that past performance to be as predictive as a random 5.5% split in the future.

A LHB needs 1000 PA's vRHP for that past performance to be as predictive as a random 9% split in the future.

We could end up with all kinds of weird stuff...pronounced reverse platoon splits among them...if this aggressive progression/regression isn't patched/smoothed out.
Yes, that's my concern as well.

I think, at least for 2017, attribute changes should be solely/directly tied to training/coaching (here's hoping for a revamp! ) but having stats tie directly to a player's ratings has an opportunity to vastly change a player's effectiveness.

EDIT: Addressed by Victor...it's nonetheless something I'm kindly hesitant about and will be watching.
