I'm not trying to be a jerk here but you're really reaching to find flaws.
Yeah, but IF EA is calibrating based on 6 minute quarters (which does not give the proper 120-130 plays per game), that IS a potential concern. If settings are calibrated to too short of a quarter length, it could very well (based on past precedent) be problematic.

Now, nothing about that screen shot suggests one way or the other, I get that. However, based on past comments from the devs, this is what they have defaulted to in previous games. One little screenshot is clearly not enough to elicit more than maybe a raised eyebrow, but I also would not say that the concern is "reaching".
