Honestly?
This is probably just another desperate attempt by Big Board Game to stay relevant
Because I legitimately am having a hard time trying to figure out what they could possibly change in order to make it more inclusive or less competitive aside from just inventing a cooperative version where you try to fill the board with as many big letter words as you can and add the points collectively
It's just a rules update to make game play faster so a game isn't just 2 hours of looking at a hand of useless vowels.
They could be accused of trying to copy video game like objectives but board games have also been largely replaced with digital versions of the game so makes sense.
