How tf does easier = more inclusive? Do you still have to spell shit? Then its still just as barring for people with issues with spelling shit. Removing barriers makes things inclusive, and that often means things get easier, but it doesn't have to and it doesn't go the other way as I've just argued.
And what would they do to make it easier? Hand in a dictionary? Smh corporations are fucking stupid. People aren't buying Scrabble because it's not woke or inclusive enough, people aren't buying Scrabble because everyone already owns the game! You won! You're done! The game is in every attic! It's fucking over go home! Make a new game! You don't have to keep doing this! I feel like I'm in that sketch from collegehumor about Oreos FFS.
As far as I can understand they're introducing challenge cards and making it cooperative? That sounds like fun, but hey ITS A NEW GAME CONGRATULATIONS YOU MADE A NEW GAME YOU DONT HABE TO KEEP MAKING SCRABBLE.
Also scrabble is fun and if you're spending 2 hours, then you're doing it wrong. Unless you're having fun, then you're doing it right.
You can always just play with alternative rules.
