What I mean is, I was under the impression they picked a seemingly random number like $26k in salary cap reduction because that is an estimation of how much those players would/should have cost.
As in, why would they count them again if the cap reduction penalty was specifically calculated to be a representation of them counting? Then all it would do is double count them.
The further $60k was meant to simply be a monetary penalty and appears to have been the max allowed.
