Yes, the caps can be cooked...

Enough said.

I don't think anyone is arguing you over that fact, though. The argument is whethere the cap is fictitious altogether or can be manipulated without limitations.

This.
If the cap could be cooked without limitations (or was fictitious) almost every team would do it. Jerry Jones and that jerk Dan Snyder would have had a half dozen Lombardis each.
The cap is not used to line owners pockets, it's to enforce parity and keep contracts from outpacing reality. TV contracts and other revenue streams are lining owners pockets.
