NMC = requires protecting.
NTC = does not.

I want to think, that this will be the last post on the matter, but really I shouldn’t underestimate.

I would agree with you especially on the bold statement. Except that you didn't read cap-friendly. On years 21-22, 22-23 he has a NMC as well as a Modified NTC! The NMC is regarding him being waived/sent down and so on. The modified NTC does indeed change from a full NTC to a list of 8 teams. Which means you had a long rent about nothing.
