Team value in FPL has never been less important than right now. In previous seasons, you could consistently expect around 0.30 to 0.35 extra projected points per gw per 1mill of budget (peaking as high as ~0.42 at the start of the 22/23 season). Currently it is around ~0.17

I like these new changes to FPL rules this season. More chips is better for people who can plan more carefully and having defensive contributions is great for stat oriented people. Overall, analytics users will benefit in the long run, I think.
