Chess960 experience is so bad compared to the normal format

Hi, I've just tried my first 2 games of chess960, and I cannot believe how bad the experience is, I cannot remove arrows, the board theme is not the same, i cannot cancel move (usually i can right click to cancel my moves for the piece that i drag so that it goes back to the original square), and many other things. Why can't you give the same experience as normal chess for chess960? Please improve the chess960 experience. Thanks

Chess 960 uses the exact same board code. It's not any different.

How do i remove arrows then? and why does the arrow look different? it looks stiff, not only that i cant select piece theme and color theme (even though i can create custom color for the board)

Are you playing on 4 Player & Variants or the main Play server? If you're on the latter the code is exactly like other live games from a board perspective.
