I get the logic behind making potential ability fixed, but should the scope of potential be in a ballpark, as opposed to a fixed value? For example, in FM23, the young Croatian striker Dion Drena Beljo has a fixed potential ability of 142. Apparently however, he goes on to develop into a quality footballer within three or four years, but his maximum PA will always stay at 142.
Shouldn't a system be developed for PA whereby a player like Beljo's potential ability could be between 140 and 165, giving more flexibility for his future development? Sticking to one rigid value seems very restrictive.
