I could rant on this topic for hours.
I didn't even know that was Tim's doing.
Increasing the starting worker count could be done only by people with a poor understanding of the game.
It is not a trade-off or a personal taste.
It's a clear and quantifiable strategic variety reduction without a clear benefit.
