"Dynamism" is about two things.
1) If you select statistics that are specific to one opponent then it is dynamic by highlighting a handful from hundreds of stats
2) If you select by street you mak the HUDidsplay more powerful overall as the practicable figures from those hundreds is refined by street.
Now 1) is worse, it is specific advice to that player. 2) is about limiting the power of HUDs overall.
This "non dynamic" HUD with stats fixed for all streets and for all opponents limits the selection of stats, the overall capability, if you want 50 on every opponent and can cope with that go for it - if you want your HUD to filter then by opponent or cutomise them "dynamically" by street then - No.
Once they allow colour coding of stats, if you allow street specific then the HUD is far more powerful, it is about clipping the capability of the s/w to what the human can read for all opponents.
Clunky? Sure. Difficult to enforce? Sure - does it make it wrong?Nah
The missing bits include enforcement, software decleration to the client, ability to check data used to populate the HD and more but this "committee" set of rules is a significant step forward by the quasi regulator Stars.
