If that is the case it works against an argument that the circumstances have obviously worsened because the stats/circumstances related to the pandemic aren’t the circumstances that the league needs to argue have changed. The league would need to argue that there was no way they could have foreseen this decrease in revenue happening when they signed the MOU, but that doesn’t appear to be the case here.
I don’t think the players are trying to harm the league, rather they are trying to protect themselves from having the league attempt to get out of any agreements negotiated in the future as that could potentially have a much more deleterious effect on the PA going forward than a lost season would. .

Seems like you’re willing to die on the hill that the players should hold the owners to an MOU they signed earlier in a pandemic.
Then RIP I guess. Owners aren’t obligated to stage games in empty arenas.
See each other next season.
