Type B Agents
#20
I voted no, with a similar line of reasoning as GoIrish. The agent system in general lends itself to moral hazard concerns, especially concerning that the agents are all one dude (even if we all trust that one dude).

Moving the line from 90 to 88 only just allows a similar argument to be made for 86-87s down the road. The game's overall rating system is far from perfect, so you will always find exceptions. Moving the agent system down for all Type Bs just means the agent will have to deal with a lot of resignings for guys that Mogul handles decently enough as it is.
