Good point. But the training-system is different from what you explained.
Training your players bi-position is, indeed, much slower than training them mono-position.
Now, to be more precise, SGs don't train slower than PGs when it comes to OD. What is important here is to make sure that, in order to train your guards most efficiently, you give them 48 minutes of playtime on the PG-spot and give them mono-position training. This is the case, not only for SGs, but for each and every position (there are some exceptions though; GS, FT and Stamina can only be trained as a team-training; Rebounding, One on One, and JS can only be trained bi-position).
So, in order to train your SG most efficiently in OD, you must set him up on the PG-spot for at least 48 minutes per week and train him mono-position. What I'd advise you, if you want to train your SGs (regardless of their potentials), is to set them up as PGs for as long as you want to train them in OD. As soon as he's reached the desired OD-level, set him up on the SG-spot and train OS.
To make things clear: What influences the training-speed of your players is not their best position as shown on their profiles, but the number of minutes they play on the spot you decide to train, and whether you train them mono or bi-position (training your players bi-position is not recommended).
The length of your player is also very important! The taller your player, the faster he'll train inside skills (ID, IS, Reb and SB). On the contrary, the smaller your player, the faster he'll train in outside skills (OD, JS, JR, PA).
