Super relievers should be allowed, just like we allow Hershberger to be your backup catcher with no penalty.
Here's what I would do to fix it:
Set a limit of 162 IP and after that, the reliever needs 2 days of rest between appearances. Maybe do a 14 IP limit in the playoffs before extra rest.
Simple, transparent, and strikes a balance between 300+ IP monstrosities and the inherent rules/ratings of Strat. To me, better than HAL arbitrarily resting my pitchers.
