In general other in-depth games of the sector give way more credit to the minors. Talking of tabletop games of the Europa serie or the TSWW serie; or Thunder in the East eventually. The first two games are very similar to WITE admittedly, with units as large as divisions / corps (for Axis / Soviets) and down to battalion level for the specialist units.
In The Operational Art of War IV there are a number of Russian front scenarios, some have Romanian ratings somewhat in line with wite2 but at least one a higher rating for the Romanians(Feel free to play that scenario).
So what do these different ratings prove? Nothing.
My references provide proof that the Romanians started the war with a decent (but inferior to Germans) morale that quickly dissipated.
Also, all of the board games and most computer games (OPART IV is an exception) have a single fixed value, an attack strength and, if it's a bit more detailed a defence strength.
WITE 2 has a more in-depth set of ratings for units, attack, defence, morale and NM. The other games do not have the "luxury" of a NM rating.
BTW, you may consider a board game as a genuine historical reference, that is your prerogative. I certainly don't and if the Devs don't make any changes to the Romanian's NM, I guess they don't either.
