It does to some people.
I believe the intent was to give more credit to private leagues which tend to be filled with veteran players than auto leagues. This does make sense since the competition is usually a little tougher.
Overall the manager ratings weigh quantity over quality and need to be taken with a grain of salt. There are some managers who may only play 6-8 teams in a season but when you look at their win %, playoff %, and champion % they are head and shoulders above many.
