They may as well cancel puzzle ratings with their new puzzle modes.

This is like running a marathon, but some people only need to run 100 yards to successfully run the marathon and win.
My puzzle rating was around the 3000 mark for quite a while. With this new easy mode, any player moderately experienced with chess puzzles could jump to a 4000 rating in a day or so.
If they wanted to introduce these modes, they could have only implemented it for non rated puzzles.
This is the dumbest business decision I have seen in quite a while.
