Did this actually make the game easier, though, or just faster?

I would say both. Example - I control a single $100 box and then lose control of the board. My opponent then locates another $100 box and answers incorrectly - I now just have to find the last $100 box.
Speeds up the game, and makes it easier for me to win (only need one correct answer now as opposed to two).

But if the roles are reversed, it's easier for your opponent to win. The effect is net zero.
Jeremy Nelson:
And this is what Chris was referring to earlier in the thread- main game rule changes don’t really count because the rule change applies to you and your opponents.

'Zackly. What it does is make the front game more susceptible to the whims of chance. Which I suppose in a game of skill makes it easier to win if you're an idiot, but otherwise all players are playing under the same set of rules.
