Owners (with money) can get better players to fill these spots

The owners want them? They lost an entire season to get a salary cap, and now they want the ability to spend money outside of the cap? Why not just get rid of the salary cap then?
Yes, there’s a couple owners with really deep pockets that would gladly do this, but as a while the owners have only wanted to have compliance buyouts when it is necessary only.
