It's just that they want to add some spice in the new normal scene.
I don't see anything wrong with that. Let them just do what they want to add entertainment to household viewers.
I totally agree with you. Over the last week I watched several football matches and I can notice that without the noise of the stadium, the game looks very pale (even when top clubs play). Even playing on the console looks more exciting and atmospheric than matches with empty stands, so I support these measures.
Whatever strategy they can add to make the game more alive and exciting is always welcome. The atmosphere is really dull without the audience but it is the new normal among sports events. Better be safe than sorry. At least we can watch some sports live and not a replay one.
