IMO you are observing possible issues of coaching - player management - same as every player and roster, every year.

AD will be treated with major deference, as all stars have earned. But on a good team w a good coach, he will have limits, because team comes first. And he is good enough to know that. Both he AND team want him to play great in bringing wins, and should work to make it happen. You know that, we all do.

I agree with every word of this, btw, and feel like I've been making similar points. 

My interpretation of where this thinking leads is that AD is going to play much, much more center than we're thinking now (if healthy, of course). I could be wrong about that, but I agree with you about the stakes and process of deciding laid out above.
